Mill Bank History Group Interviews

An archive of stories and photographs about Mill Bank and Cottonstones was started by Ruth Beazley in the 1990s.

In 2023/24/25 members of the Mill Bank History Group helped to interview another 30 people and expand the photographic collection. Extracts from these interviews were used in the book Mill Bank and Cottonstones: Stories from the 20th Century, published in 2025.

Special thanks to Sue Haines and Janet Webster for  transcribing and proofreading edited scripts.
