History

Later C19 mill building built as a flannel mill, part of the extensive Leri Mills complex. The mills produced flannel for the lead miners in the C19 and were converted to spinning mills for handweaving in C20. A building is marked on the site on 1847 Tithe Map, but the present building looks later in date.
