Orme Mill

Orme Mill
Orme Mill at Waterhead in Oldham was built in 19089 by the Orme Ring Mill Ltd for cotton spinning. Initially it housed 62,000 ring spindles. It was designed by architects F. W. Dixon & Son. The Lancashire Cotton Corporation took over in the 1930s and production finished in 1960. The mill was passed on to Ferranti in 1964, and is now in multiple usage.
