New Little Mill

In which area is New Little Mill situated?

New Little Mill is part of the Murrays’ Mills complex, which, at the beginning of the 19th century, was one of the world’s biggest cotton-spinning complexes. The new residential development is nestled right at the heart of the Ancoats Conservation Area. Steeped in history, the neighbourhood boasts a beautiful collection of period properties and historic landmarks. Moreover, the complex is mere minutes away from the Northern Quarter with its trendy bars, indie shops, buzzy restaurants, and vibrant music venues, accompanied by large malls, such as Manchester Arndale and Affleck's, where shopping enthusiasts can lose themselves in a maze of colourful boutiques.

To get a temporary reprieve from the bustling streets, residents of New Little Mill can enjoy a lazy stroll along the charming Rochdale Canal and arrive at Victoria Mill Park in just 16 minutes. The park envelops the stream with its lush greenery, creating a quiet leafy oasis amidst the city. There are a playground and a fenced-off sports zone, where children are welcomed to play some ball. Another waterfront green space can be found only 9 minutes away. Providing a cosy place for birdwatching and unwinding, Cotton Field Park offers beautiful access to New Islington Marina.

The Ancoats Conservation Area is well connected to the rest of the megapolis. The Piccadilly Gardens tram stop with access to the Blue, Yellow, and Purple Lines is just an 8-minute walk away, while the nearby Market Street stop is also served by Navy Line. For longer travels, you can take a 12-minute stroll to Manchester Piccadilly Train Station.
