PHASE 1 RELEASE - FORSTER MILL APARTMENTS

Forster Mill enjoys a stunning location on the edge of Burley village from where there are beautiful sweeping aspects across the river Wharfe towards open countryside and the moors beyond. Phase 1 sees the release of just 16 apartments within this iconic former worsted mill.

Whilst the mills at Greenholme have been in decline for decades, the vision of JF Development Group, working with highly regarded architects Bowman Riley, has brought us the magnificent
scheme which we see today. Each unit, irrespective of size, is comprehensively and stylishly equipped. Apartments within Forster Mill feature external balconies providing outside space and a vantage point from which to soak up the every changing views.

The site provides a generous parking allocation with EV points, whilst there is expansive communal space with sweeping lawned areas and strategic planting.

THE VILLAGE

With its vibrant sense of community Burley offers a thriving village atmosphere, supported by a broad provision of every day amenities including local shops, sports clubs, a couple of primary schools as well as a number of pubs and restaurants. The village even has its own railway station, positioned within comfortable walking distance of Greenholme Mills, from where there are frequent services throughout the day into Ilkley and the local cities of Leeds and Bradford. There are regular onward connections from the former to London Kings Cross.

The surrounding countryside, River Wharfe and rugged moors offer many an opportunity for stunning walks, mountain and road biking and other rural pursuits.

Nearby Ilkley is an elegant former Victorian Spa town, whilst Otley has its roots embedded in the local agricultural community and retains a regular market within the picturesque square. Each town offers an excellent choice of retail, social and recreational amenities along with sports clubs to suit a variety of interests. Both are accessible from Burley by public transport, whilst for those who need to travel further afield Leeds/Bradford International Airport is only some 7 miles or so distant.

AN INDUSTRIAL HISTORY

For much of the 18th century Burley in Wharfedale was a typical agricultural community, serving the needs and requirements of the local landed estates. This bucolic life changed in 1790 when Jonas Whitaker & Company developed the original Greenholme Mill alongside the River Wharfe, a little to the north of the existing range of buildings. The present substantial mill buildings, Whitaker and Forster, were constructed around 1810 for the purposes of cotton spinning and at the time Greenholme was considered to be one of the largest water powered mills in the United Kingdom.

The passing decades saw many companies operate from the site, with the last substantial occupier, William Fisons & Company, converting the mills to worsted spinning and weaving in around 1850. Becoming a Limited Company in 1907, Fisons’ continued in occupation until 1968 when, following the decline of much of the West Riding’s worsted trade, the business was wound down and the assets sold. The mill buildings continued in use for commercial purposes over the intervening years until planning consent was granted for the magnificent scheme which we see today – bringing a wonderful renaissance and reversing industrial decline.

The mills and the village have a fascinating combined history and more can be found on the websites burleyhistory.org, burleycommunitylibrary.org and burley-in-wharfedale.org.
