Sad to report that Clough Mills is currently on fire, I counted about 8 or 9 fire engines passing the pub I was in this evening on the way there.

Somebody has posted this video on Twitter and has posted that roof has collapsed

I'll try and get up there in the morning to get some shots of the aftermath

A cock hair away from my house and i never heard a thing

Just been down now, and It's in a sorry state. Expect demo soon

Just been for a butchers, the fire brigade are still damping down







Certainly looks knackered, on the upper floors, and I'd imagine there'll be plenty of water damage to the lower floors now.

Shame, another one bites the dust, metal monkeys I guess

Speculation (probably unfounded) locally that it might be an insurance job, as a previous scheme to sell the mill and turn it into flats fell through.

[SilentHill]

My thoughts too...... Inside job.

You've gotta blame the councils for shit like this, they allways turn down planning for conversions, then these places end up raised to the floor, different story if they get a decent back hander though...
