1912. Similar to the later iron-framed mills of Lancashire and a good example
of the type. Built overhand. Red brick with stone dressings. Rectangular
plan with rear eastern wing, single storey section across part of western facade
and corner towers. South western tower larger with stone belevedere and name
and date on front. All towers have stone balustraded parapets. Mill built
over earlier water channels to wheels. Seven storeys. Top floor has arcaded
windows with stone archivolts and keys. Glazing bars and hopper opening lights,
stepped recessed brick arches.
Rear elevation to River Gardens and Matlock Road has small semi-circular balconies
linking corner towers with main body of mill on several floors. The East Mill
is a prominent land-mark in many near and distant views of the town.
