Eccles Spinning Mill, 50 Worsley Rd, Winton,

Like the Togo Mill in Patricroft, Eccles Spinning Mill was built in 1906 by local businessmen, led bythe Mayor of Eccles, Joseph Schofield. It was built to the highest fireproof standards to a design by the leading mill architect Potts, Son and Hennings of Manchester and Oldham. It operated 60,000 power spindles and 100 Northrop looms, using cotton imported from Egypt, America, Brazil and Peru, and delivered to the site by canal. The date of closure is unknown, but the site was used by Great Universal Stores until 2006. [Salford Mills Survey 2018-2019]
