The site had been a major landmark for more than 150 years but had fallen into disrepair
Following a brief introduction, the party visited various areas of the site including the Grade II listed former mill building which is being converted into spacious mill townhouses, as well as the original worker’s cottages and workshops which are also being sympathetically converted to provide wonderful new homes.
Group member Rita Norman said: “It was an absolute privilege to have the opportunity to look around the site which has been a major landmark in this part of Leeds for well over 150 years, but had fallen into disrepair.“The redevelopment of the existing buildings is simply breath-taking and every one of us gave it a big thumbs up.
“Lots of our members have a connection to the site which was a major employer in the area. The visit evoked some special memories and showed the magic of the mills still exists in the hearts of many.” Georgina Maud of Rushbond Plc said: “It was a pleasure to welcome the group to Stonebridge Beck and receive so many positive comments regarding the regeneration work we are undertaking.
“This is consistent with the reaction from all visitors and is reflected in the high volume of sales we are experiencing across our full range of properties. These include contemporary and heritage new build, as well as the conversion of the existing buildings. We are also regenerating the area alongside Farnley Beck to create a natural parkland environment for residents and local wildlife to enjoy.”Three show homes are now available to view without an appointment.
