I've been unable to find background info on this place, and there's only one other report here about it, so apologies on that front!
The basics are; Springhead Mill, Cheetham, not far from Strangeways.
Anyway, it was fun to get in to, a little cairn pointing the way.

In we go!

No idea what the floor was littered with, but it felt like a million tonnes of soggy paper

2nd floor looked pretty knackered
I didn't go up another flight as I could see plenty of light coming through the ceiling and I wasn't too intent on seeing just how soft all that paper was...
I may go back on a drier weekend and check out the rest of it.
Hope you liked my first report!
