The Waterhouse (Former Oliver Family Home)

Highlight • Monument

In the 1950s a place had been desperately needed for Bollington's disabled children and the mill's gatehouse subsequently housed the Bollington Spastic Clinic.

It was a daunting task but one that Bollington took to its heart. Within weeks, Mr. lan Oliver of the Mill offered us the brand-new nursery that had been built for his employers' children, as they preferred to stay in the building already in use. Slowly the children thrived and everyone, even though some were terribly disabled, blossomed in the love and care they received.' The Waterhouse Mill was demolished in 1962 but The Waterhouse, home of the Oliver family and now the Bollington Medical Centre.
