Gibson Mill is a 19th-century textile mill located in Manchester, England. The mill is a stunning example of industrial architecture, boasting a striking red-brick façade with arched windows and a grand clock tower. Today, the mill has been converted into a thriving hub of creative businesses, with a variety of independent shops, cafes, and studios. Visitors can explore the mill's historic spaces, admire the original machinery and features, and enjoy the vibrant atmosphere of this revitalized industrial landmark.
Hardcastle Craggs and Gibson Mill are great for a day out. Walks in woods with stepping stones across river. Cafe staff very friendly. Second-hand books on sale. Parking available. A great place to visit if enjoy country walks and fresh air.
Excellent place for walkers. However the building itself is really only for outside admiration as it contains very little by way of things to visit. Overall interesting place but not for us due to limitations on the walking side with some member's of our group.
Lovely cafe at the end of the walk. Great ice cream parlour. National trust parking up the hill from Gibson Mill. Can use PayByPhone app. Can walk to the top floor of the Mill, gives a bit of history info.
Lovely place for a walk. Pretty building, great for photos
If you've never been before, I suggest you wear sturdy shoes that support your feet and ankles. We took the short, easy terrain, walk due to me having difficulty walking. I also suggest you take your own food with you, as the food isn't cheap. PS4.50 for a small but delicious and well filled sausage roll. Payment is by card only. Next to the cafe, outside, there is a toilet for the disabled. Make sure you have your 'Radar' key with you. The toilets are non flushing, a bit like the toilet in a portacabin. There is a notice telling you how to use it. Dogs are welcome. There were plenty there for me to say hello to, and they were all well behaved.
Walking from Hebden Bridge, there is a nice circular walk up to Gibson Mill. Alternatively, there are 2 smallish car parks at the gates to the National Trust managed site that are accessed by small roads that can get 'blocked up' easily on approach. Gibson Mill itself, is a reached by then walking approx 1 mile via either a river side path or a dirt, vehicle track or a higher elevation path through the woods (the least walked!). Which ever option you take, we took the river side path outwards and the high elevation path back, the destination is often the historic mill. Some people go beyond the Mill to 'the crags' or further on the Blake Dean, where the path loops round a returns to the Mill. The Mill itself, acts as both a museum and cafe. The cafe offers typical, limited drinks and food. Many people seemed to take their own picnic and eat this on the grassy patches by the river. Toilets are available at both near the car park and at the Mill.
