Canterbury Fireplaces Limited
With nearly 25 years of trading, Canterbury Fireplaces, offers you one of Lancashire's finest and largest purpose built showroom.
The family run firm is one of the largest gas fire showrooms in the country with more than 100 gas and electric fires on constant display.
The Canterbury Street Mill was built in 1865, when it employed 160 people. It closed during World War Two and stopped operating completely in 1955.
We began trading in the 1980's when Steve was just 26 redeveloped the historic mill into a home for our fireplace firm "Canterbury Fireplaces", in Canterbury Street, Blackburn.
We ran the business from a corner of the former Canterbury Mill, and now, 20 years on, own the entire site of the mill and have spent over £300,000 creating a state-of-the-art showroom.
And, after two years of demolition and building we built a brand new showroom and offices for the business, and space for two units, we are now renting out our business units on the other part of the site.
During our project, a historic cast iron arch was saved, original cobbles were kept at the entrance way, and some original brick features were kept in a boundary wall, along with an original lamppost.
