This tower block is the last building to be demolished in the area that was Hattersley Precinct. When completed in the late 1960s/early 1970s the Four in Hand public house stood to the right of the tower, the red machine stands on the walkway that originally had shops on both sides and the ends, about 25 shops in total selling all sorts of goods even a record shop. Most of the shops were demolished 25/30 years ago the rest following more recently. Close up http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/5323126
