An old Worsley cotton mill could be converted into 64 flats.
Developers want to preserve and extend the dilapidated Grecian Mill, in Worsley Road North, by turning it into self-contained apartments, with a landscaped winter garden, an office suite and flexible commercial floorspace plus parking and cycle storage.

The buildings have been predominantly vacant since truck manufacturer the Eaton corporation left in 2007.
The principle of development states: “The Council acknowledged that the proposed development would represent an ideal opportunity to preserve a prominent local landmark within an urban renewal area for corresponding residential purposes.”
A decision is not expected until December 16 2026.
