Hi, we must assume that after these properties were demolished, this became the site of Hillock Vale Mill which was a weaving shed, built c1854. The houses at Vale Court, South and Parker Streets probably housed the mill operatives.
Think eventually Hillock Vale Garage was erected on same site, premises now used as a gift ware type of shop.
