Calver Mill at Calver

Calver Mill

Calver Mill was first built in 1785 but destroyed by fire and rebuilt in 1805 when it became a thriving cotton mill employing a large number of local people. It finished producing cotton in 1923 and has had a number of uses since then, including the role of Colditz Castle in the television series, Colditz. It is now being renovated into modern housing.
