Nuttall Street barely exists now. Old maps show it as running between Whatmough Street and Tatham Street (the former has gone completely, the latter merely a stub). But the road name remains on this industrial building. The density of the old terraced houses can be imagined if you consider that between the photographer location on Molesworth Street, and Nuttall Street in front of this building, were two lots of houses with a back alley called Stowe Place between them. The metal gates are across what remains of Harriett Street (I wonder whether this is still technically a public highway?)
