History Meets Ambition
The Old Woollen is more than a venue; it’s a testament to the collaborative efforts of Trouble at Mill and Farsley’s Sunny Bank Mills, twinned with The Constitutional. Housed in a 19th-century structure, the venue is rich in character and history. But it aspires to be more, forming a crucial part of PROJECT BOILERHOUSE—a grand vision aimed at turning these historic buildings into a nationally recognized center for culture, the arts, and entertainment.
