Trouble is looming over the historic Chatham Mills campus in downtown Pittsboro.

Owners of the Hillsboro Street property have filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection and are working on a reorganization plan to stave off more than $5 million in bank debt that’s weighing on the property.

Hillsborough businessman Tom Roberts and his group of investors purchased the 80,000-square-foot mill in 1997.
