Just seen a tweet (that's modern isn't it) that St Ann's Mill is on fire. No other information as yet.

It was the outbuilding marked with an X that was on fire.(Unit 01)It must have been a building of some merit though, It is marked in Yellow to be refurbished on these council plans. Although these schemes are mostly pie in the sky like the light rail tram farce e.t.c. The whole place is gutted, the stone walls are about all that remains. Edit...It looks like the waterwheel or pumphouse where it was situated by the river.
