The best I can do is Haltcliffe Mill, Caldbeck Fells, Cumbria which was a
fulling mill which was converted into a lead smelt mill, then cotton mill
then back to a smelt mill.

Dear List,
Are there any examples of water mills (grist or fulling) being converted
and used for pumping mine water?
Kindest regards,
