Dist:0.1km<br/>I posted this earlier as Bury and then decided to reject it because I wasn't sure. Thanks to Robert Wade and Rossendale Online, I have relocated it to Bolton. The tower with flag pole is Sunnyside Mills, home to Tootal, Broadhurst and Lee. This site has largely been redeveloped and the tower has gone. Photographer location is uncertain.

Dist:0.2km<br/>Was home to a massive inverted vertical triple expansion mill engine. Built by George Saxon Ltd, Openshaw, Manchester in 1915 to develop 1,800 ihp at 78 rpm. The proportions of the engine room reflect this type of engine. Long since scrapped.
