Back Shipton Street, Bolton

Image: © Chris Allen Taken: 4 Mar 2012

A back alley with cobbles behind terraced workers' housing in Bolton. Redolent of Coronation Street and still to be seen in the 21st century. In retrospect, I should have walked up a bit and turned round to photograph the huge mill at the end of the street.
