“It is a privilege to welcome His Royal Highness to Dean Clough once again and have the opportunity to highlight the substantial changes and developments since his last visit,” he said.
“The number of people working here has more than doubled to some 4,000, while the restoration of the magnificent millstone grit buildings has all but been completed.
“Last year’s development of the 170 year-old ‘A&B’ Mills is a wonderful example of how adapting for the future through the re-purposing of historic buildings both preserves the local legacy and conserves the environment.”
