MACCLESFIELD

SJ9273 WATERSIDE 886-1/7/213 (North side) Former dye houses at SJ 9206 7306

II

Dye houses. Late C19. Brick with asbestos sheet roofs with slatted clerestoreys. 3 gabled single-storey structures, each a single chamber forming a wedge-shaped ground plan. Decorative brickwork forms recessed panels on each gable end. The dye houses were originally part of a mill complex which made handkerchiefs in the early part of the C20, and they included vats and a laboratory. They are of interest as a rare survivor of a building type and industrial practice once common in Macclesfield as an important adjunct of the silk industry. (Fricker, Calladine et al: Macclesfield Dye Houses Survey).
