at Maple The Maple Mill was a cotton spinning mill in Hathershaw Oldham, Greater Manchester, England. It was designed as a double mill by the architect Sydney Stott.The first mill was built in 1904 and the second mill in 1915. In 1968, it was equipped with the first open-end spinning machines in England. When spinning ceased in the 1990s, it was bought by Vance Miller. Trading Standards raided the mill in 2006, and ordered Mr Miller stop selling products that failed national safety provisions. It was seriously damaged by fire in April 2009; the fire brigade was in attendance for two weeks and deployed 34 appliances.
