Is this image definitely Broom Mill? Compare to the photo of Broom Mill from 1972, and the number of floors and windows to the roof line on the E end of the building are different, the brick tower in the centre of the building shown in 1972 may have come later than 1910, but for this 1910 photo to be accurately placed there would need to be very significant changes to the brick building early C20th, before the later concrete building additions. By the 1980s, Mill House, which had been the mill offices had a gambrel roof. The building in the corresponding position in this 1910 image, to the RHS of the Mill, through the trees has a different roof shape, seemingly hipped.
