Oakes Mill, Huddersfield

History

The firm Ben Crosland and Sons were founded in 1827 and were operating from Oakes Mill by the latter half on the nineteenth century.

In 1969 Ben Crosland and Sons were taken over and production finally ceased in 2016 with several light manufacturing firms now occupying units within the mill.

One from March 2021, recently released for public consumption. The mill has now been demolished to make way for a new Aldi supermarket.
