Hole, Hill?[edit]

Owen Ashmore (1982) The Industrial Archaeology of North-west England gives the cotton spinning mill as "Hough Hill Mill": [1] Martinevans123 (talk) 10:54, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

That may have been the name of the mill, but the same reference says Hough Hole engineering works. And the map reference of the mill gives a site some 400–500m to the northwest. So there must have been both a Hill and a Hole.--Peter I. Vardy (talk) 12:05, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Ah I see. I had assumed that this was the engineering works incorporated into the house, i.e. the same place. Martinevans123 (talk) 12:21, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
