Carleton Mill is a historic building in Carleton-in-Craven, a village in North Yorkshire, in England. William and John Slingsby leased a mill in Bell Busk in 1841. It proved successful, and in 1849 they were able to construct a small mill in Carleton. In 1861, they built a larger mill in the village, to work cotton. Ownership passed to their sons, Cecil and John Arthur, but the two had a poor working relationship, and in 1930 the business failed. The mill was purchased by the Fattorini family, which used it to run a mail order business. In 1941, it was purchased by the Rover Company, which used it to manufacture aircraft components. The Aspinall family took it over in 1947, to manufacture carpets, then in 1980 Gaskell PLC took it over, continuing to make carpets. It closed in 1999, and in 2003 was converted into 57 flats and houses by Novo Homes and Peter Harrison Architects. It has been Grade II listed since 1988. The mill is built of stone with lintel bands, a dentilled cornice, a slate roof, and three storeys. The doorway is round-headed with a rusticated surround, and the windows have plain surrounds. At the east end is a tower with two cornices, pilaster strips and a parapet. The top storey contains elliptical-headed windows in architraves, and above is a truncated pyramidal roof with railings. At the west end is a tall octagonal chimney. In the centre of the mill is an open air atrium, with a water feature and glass-fronted lift.

The Eller Beck is a small river in North Yorkshire, England, that flows through the town of Skipton and is a tributary of the River Aire.

Dewhurst's Mill, also known as Belle Vue Mill, is a historic mill complex in Skipton, a town in North Yorkshire, in England. John Dewhurst ran a spinning business in the Yorkshire Dales from the 1790s. In 1829, he constructed a worsted mill in Skipton, but it burned down in 1831. It was rebuilt before the end of the year, and reopened as a cotton mill. A large extension was added in 1852, and again between 1859 and 1860. Between 1863 and 1864, a warehouse was constructed nearby, on the site of the town's old workhouse. The largest mill building was constructed between 1867 and 1870. By this time, the mill employed 800 people working over a total floor area of 20,000 square yards (17,000 m2). In 1897, the business was taken over by the English Sewing Cotton Company, which continued to use the mill to produce Sylko, marketed as a silk substitute. The mill closed in the early 1980s, and its prominent main chimney was demolished. The building was converted to manufacture greetings cards, then later turned into offices, including the headquarters of Craven District Council. The complex has been collectively grade II listed since 1978. It is built of stone with hipped roofs in slate and glazing. The main block has five storeys and 20 bays, with rusticated quoins, dentilled sill bands and casement windows.
