Shaw Mills is a hamlet in the civil parish of Bishop Thornton, Shaw Mills and Warsill, in Nidderdale in the Harrogate district, North Yorkshire, England. It lies in the valley of Thornton Beck, a tributary of the River Nidd, 6 miles (10 km) north west of Harrogate.

The village probably takes its name from a corn mill kept by one Robert Shaw in the 16th century.[1] In 1812 John and George Metcalfe began spinning flax in the Low Mill at Shaw Mills[2] The High Mill and Low Mill both closed by 1861, but in about 1890 were restarted for silk-spinning. The mills closed soon after the First World War.[3] An industrial settlement developed in the 19th century to serve the mills. And it is now derelict and about to fall down
