I grew up on Billinge Road and clearly remember May Mill. Someone on Facebook says it was off Enfield Street. I sound a picture showing the mill behind Highfield graveyard. She is saying the entrance was off Enfield Street whre she lived. Looking for clarification on this please

Kath, it was down Foundry Lane

yes That's what I thought. I knew there wasn't a mill off Enfield Street. Thanks

Enfield mill in Enfield street.

I didn't know about Enfield Mill. where was that?

It was a bit further up the street from the Enfield pub.

I can't recall Enfield pub either. I do remember one on yj eright going up like a club or something.

That club was demolished last year

Expect houses....

I remember going to visit a mill on Enfield St when I was at St John's, Pem in the 50's. It must have been Enfield mill. The watchman had a large convex mirror, pointing skywards, outside his office where he could see if the smoke was too much coming from the very tall chimney. The noise was deafening in the factory. I knew then that I didn't want to work in a cotton mill but what an experience for us youngsters.

My aunty Joan baguley worked in the canteen,me and mum used to visit now and again,That would have been in the early 60`s
