There was a building on top of them and by the side was a runway for water that went into Ibbotsons rolling mill on the other side of the road. Probably did have a water wheel but when we used it, it was empty.

We got closed down in 1986 and it was there then because every so often we had to clear out all the rubbish from the filter grates that lead into the mill.

On the last map in your link, where the L is in Alma street is where the goit leads into the rolling mill.
