Taken from the junction with Bulwer Street. The industrial building is the Victoria Mill, originally a cotton waste processing concern, but by 1979 being used for warehousing. At the slight kink in the road, the street name changes to Chestnut Place, which also bends round to the right at the end. The view further on of the house backs only became possible with the removal of the railway embankment, and these houses are on Oswald Street, (centre right) and Entwisle Road (far right).
