After seing an article about this in a paper someone showed me this was our second location.....

article: Plans to demolish mill and build homes - Local - Leyland Guardian

Bamber Bridge Spinning Company (New Mill or Wesley St. Mill)

Opened in 1907, this was perhaps the most spectacular of the local mills, and with
135,000 spindles it was one of the largest in the Preston district.

The mill’s closure was announced in 1959.

Since then it seems the ground floor has been used for various companies.

Assystem have been based in the engine room and located a few streets away in 2008.

And a heating supply company of some sort.

was actually quite good for a Mill, fair enough its empty but I was expecting Hartford Mill empty lol

I was there a few years ago! I thought that I was trapped but managed to ninja my way out. A great explore but big wake up call on exploring solo.
