Inside Greenholme Mills - the 1700s water-powered textile mill near Ilkley that has now been converted into build-to-rent apartments

MMR has already spent over £20 million on the scheme, designed by Bowman Riley, and it now includes 43 luxurious, one, two and three-bedroom rental apartments with balconies, to create the long-term, steady returns the Canadian investors want. “We have employed the best people, including Bowman Riley and a stonemason who is passionate about old buildings. I am passionate about detail so you can see where the money went.”
