Falcon Mill

The Falcon Mill on Handel Street, Bolton, was built for Falcon Spinninmg Co Ltd in 1907 on the site of the former Brookfield Mill. In 1925 there were 96,000 spindles in use. It was still spinning cotton for Vantona-Viyella Yarns in 1985. It is grade II listed.

The tower incorporates the mill name in white glazed brick against green glazed brick. The decorative buff terracotta columns have been removed where the lighter brickwork now shows.
