The Rochdale Canal near Corporation Mill

Image: © Bobby Clegg Taken: 4 Sep 2015

The canal passes between Edith's Terrace to the left and Corporation Mill to the right of the image. The moored narrowboat on the north bank is named Zusammen. Comparing this to a photo taken from more or less the same spot by Dr. Neil Clifton in May 1990, the canal has been very well rstored and is in full water these days. The five storey mill still looks much as it did, but the octagonal stone chimney has been truncated almost down to the level of its plinth.
