Description
Albion Mill, Macclesfield
A landmark Grade II listed building with full planning consent for residential conversion
Prominently positioned in south Macclesfield, Albion Mill presents a rare opportunity to restore and repurpose one of the town’s most iconic heritage buildings. This imposing Grade II listed former textile mill, built in 1843, benefits from full planning permission for the creation of 30 apartments, including a range of traditional two-bedroom units and a number of three-bedroom duplex penthouses, along with associated access and parking (Cheshire East Council Ref: 17/0499M).
Originally constructed for Thomas Heapy, a leading figure in Macclesfield’s celebrated 19th-century silk trade, the mill reflects the confidence and prosperity of the era. Architectural highlights include red brick elevations, sandstone detailing, a slate roof, and a prominent central parapet inscribed with ‘Albion Mill 1843’. Internally, the building retains many original features, including cast-iron columns and timber beams, offering significant scope for sympathetic restoration.
In later years, the mill was operated by A.W. Hewetson for machine embroidery, extending its industrial contribution well into the 20th century and cementing its place in the town’s economic and cultural landscape.
The approved scheme has been carefully designed to preserve the building’s external character while enabling high-quality residential use. The plans include 33 parking spaces, along with external staircases and access walkways positioned to the rear of the property, allowing the principal elevation to remain uninterrupted.
Set within a residential area undergoing meaningful regeneration, this scheme represents not only a sound development opportunity but also a chance to be part of Macclesfield’s continued growth and renewal.
