2010 Special Events & Exhibitions

Coldharbour Mill "Steam Up"

Don't miss this unique experience. See the Mill's rare 1910 Pollit & Wigzell 300hp steam engine, 1867 Kittoe & Brotherhood Beam Engine and Lancashire Boiler operating under steam. And, not forgetting the fully restored Water Wheel built especially for the mill in  1821. A fantastic event and an amazing experience.

Tours of mill are also available on these days where you can see the process of turning combed worsted tops into knitting yarn on Victorian period spinning & twisting frames. Weaving can also be seen on Hattersley shuttle looms.
