These ruins were once a thriving mill in the Cheesden Valley. Also known as Deeply Vale Print Works. In 1846 the mill had two printing machines and 100 handblock tables for making cloths with three, four or five different colours. Later known as Hardman's Mill, it was closed by the 1890s.

The macabre ruins of Deeply Vale were a bustling mill in the mid-19th century. It was one of many mills along the Cheesden Valley involved in the dying and colouring of textiles.
