Went 2 or 3 years back. Suited me as not all womens clothes but plenty to interest me. Enjoyed the small museum as well. Had to pay a small fee to get in the place even if you didn't visit museum. Grub in cafe not bad. It is an old mill with lots of individual traders - including antiques. Quite good bargains as well.

Researching:
Stuarts - Birmingham, Staffordshire. Beats Notts and Lincs

I think that it is an old cotton mill that has been converted to 5 floors of shopping - it is actually near the Mormon Cathedral. I would be interested to hear anyone elses opinion who has been.
