Founded c.1800. The owner in 1864 was Charles Dowall, yarn bleacher. A two storey warehouse, an older wall with a tailrace culvert emerging from it and a good example of a wrought-iron curved single-aspect glass house from the first half of the 19th century. It used waste heat from the bleachworks. The rest was demolished in c 2008.
