Rochdale: The 'Wellington' hotel

Closed and rapidly deteriorating, the 'Wellington', probably Rochdale's oldest pub, stands at the bottom of Drake Street to view a scene of untidy confusion as tram lines are laid leading from Drake Street into the new terminus which will be on Smith Street. Rochdale's residents are heartily fed up with the seemingly incessant tram works; one hopes they will, one day, think it has all been worthwhile.
