Anglezarke Mill (Putative)
Anglezarke - SD 623190
When Sir Thomas Standish let his mines to Sir Henry Houghton in 1721, the lease contained provision for the construction of a smelting mill at a place called Wharf, in Anglezarke. No trace of a mill has been found, but its intended position is assumed to have been on the Warth Brook, which flows near White Coppice.
