Scout-Mill, on the banks of the Tame, a short dis- tance to the south of Mossley, is described by Dr. Aikin, in 1794, " as a place well known for its very rural and romantic situation, and partly for its melancholy and unfortunate inhabitants." It was, at the period named, a private lunatic asylum. The scenery at this spot has been injured by the formation of a new road. Witehaw-Dale-Grovey in Smallshaw, is a pleasing residence, of the Higginbottoms. Staly-Bank is a good house, of the Rev. Jose...ph Saville Robarts Evans, situate near the Tame.
