New Little Mill - Situated at the corner of Bengal Street and Jersey Street in Ancoats, Little Mill was originally constructed around 1822 by the Murray Brothers, shortly after the completion of Murrays Mills. The building was initially connected to New Mill via an underground tunnel.

Notably, Little Mill holds the distinction of being the first recorded cotton mill powered by mains electricity. Following a fire in around 1908, the mill was rebuilt and subsequently renamed “New Little Mill.”
