Mossley Mill in Newtownabbey has undergone a £16m redevelopment by local company Graham Construction.
The first phase of the project involved the complete refurbishment of the existing mill building. Structural stabilisation of the existing masonry façade was required during internal demolitions as was removal of sections of existing stonework to accommodate new feature curtain walling.

In addition to renewal of existing roof coverings and external stone work repairs internal demolition provided the opportunity to integrate a new lift shaft and access lift, spiral staircase and new lobby areas.
The second phase comprised the construction of the new build Community Arts and Cultural Centre, including a new theatre.
It is hoped that this completed project will gain recognition as a "centre for art and creativity" and will house a range of creative organisations.
