Plans to turn a former cotton mill in Littleborough into an appartment block moved a step closer after developers were awarded a £3.4million loan for the project.

Plans to turn Clegg Hall mill into 23 new one, two and three-bedroom apartments are a step closer to being made a reality after Barclays Commercial Bank granted the loan to Huddersfield-based developer über Massclusive (UK).

Two outbuildings next to the Grade II-listed mill will be converted into luxury detached homes fronting a lake.

The mill has been left derelict since a fire in 2003.

The scheme is scheduled for completion early next year.
