Longlands Mill
Residential
Project Preview
Full details
We achieved this by faithfully revealing and restoring the cast iron columns, stone lintels and brick arches, together with the various scars of time, to celebrate the history and use of these important local landmarks. New interventions are simple and clearly modern, avoiding any ambiguity with the original building fabric.
Responding to the existing building elements in this way required exceptional attention to detail, resulting in a rich mix of 44 uniquely different apartments.
The mill forms part of our wider masterplan for the regeneration of the Castle Street area in the heart of Stalybridge. (See the Longlands Pattern House)

Testimonials
Of the 3 mills shortlisted this stole the show, mainly because as much attention is paid to the crucial common areas as the apartments. Great quality materials used, great sense of place and good sized living spaces.
It is a supreme job that has not only rescued a landmark site but has also created some lovely places to live.
You have given us an excellent service. I am very happy.
