Historic England has published its new Engines of Prosperity’ report for the North West, as it continues its programme to review and develop best practice in the regeneration of textile mills.
HE writes:
Historic England engaged Cushman & Wakefield and Lathams Architects to review and develop best practice in the regeneration of textile mills. The West Yorkshire study was published on 30 June 2016 and the North West study was published on 20 November 2017.
The studies comprise the following key elements:
- A review of best practice mills conversions
- Assessments of re-use potential of under-used/vacant mills
- Key lessons learned and recommended next steps
The reports highlight the opportunity for vacant and under-used mills in the regions to act as a stimulus for regeneration activity and to contribute to growth in the local economy.
