Dating from 1829, Sunny Bank Mills was an important woollen & worsted mill, with an interesting history. Although it ceased manufacturing only 12 years ago, it is still owned by the family who helped found the mill in late Georgian times. The unique collection at Sunny Bank Mills Archive will be open, containing a complete record of cloth samples woven at the mill since the 1880s; an inspiration for all. The atmospheric mills still contain artefacts to take you back in time to the days it employed over 900 people spinning and weaving some of the finest cloth in the world.

There will be some small mill tours, booking essential exploring the rich history of the mill and the people who worked here.

The archive will be closed to the public but will be accessible through our virtual 360-degree tour on our website (see separate entry).
