Tingley Mills Phase 1 Completion

The Tingley Mills building complex is a former fabric mill that Manchester-based MMR refurbished and converted into flats. The welcoming new residential development of 49 high-end luxury apartments breathes new life into the historic 19th-century mill complex.

Dating back to 1868, the textile mill was built to create a typical Morley union cloth and ‘shoddy’ material, which was popular at the time. In the 1880s, the premises later became an industrial estate following an extension and, in the early 1990s, a business complex to sixteen smaller companies.

Tingley Mills Phase 1 Residential Redevelopment plan by MMR has completed with Cairn Cross concluding works in February 2020.

This project included providing the foundations. groundworks, drainage, storm attenuation and surfacing works at the Tingley Mills Development.

S278 works were carried out to the junction of Britannia Road, this included relocating the interactive bus stop on Bridge Street, constructing a retaining wall surrounding the plot, road markings and associated kerb and tactile paving.

The soft and hard landscaping undertaking, including gullies, kerbing, car park, surfacing, block paving and landscaping, completed its usability and established the luxury appeal.

Allowing the provision of electricity to Phase 1 and Phase 2 required a new on-site sub-station. CCCE arranged the supply, constructed the base slab for the sub-station, and facilitated installing the transformer equipment and kiosk enclosure.

Installation of storm attenuation systems, control the flow of water into the main sewer. This connection involved excavation to required levels and sand bedding in achieving required levels, installing the attenuation membrane, storm attenuation cells, and backfilling works.
