Built in 1847, the Riverside Mill is a very large Victorian building on the banks of the Great Ouse river, flanked on one side by a 14th century bridge and on the other by meadows and grazing land. This superb location is only a few minutes from Huntingdon town centre, bus and rail stations and convenient for the A1(M), A14 and M11. The Mill supplied rugs and clothing to our fighting forces from the Boer War onwards. After the second World War, it supplied the Colonies, Prison Commissioners and GPO as well as many foreign countries. In the many years before winding up as a Mill, it was entirely self contained, providing its own electricity and had special dyeing and finishing departments. In earlier years, goods were transported by river until the Great Eastern Railway ran a branch line into the factory. After being empty for many years, the Riverside Mill was converted into 93 residential units in the mid 1980s.
