    Hollins Bridge Mill dates from around 1724, and was mainly used for grinding cutlery, fenders and optical glass, although it was converted to a corn mill in the 19th century. The mill survived into the 20th century, but had become little used by 1936.

    In the early 20th century, the course of the river was changed so that it flowed directly through the former mill dam and a new, wide weir was built across the river at the downstream end to maintain the head of water to power the waterwheel. This weir, located just upstream of Hollins Bridge, is one of the longest in the valley.
