At the west end of Holmes Street. On the far side of the Spodden here was the electric tram depot of Rochdale Corporation, newly built for when electric cars replaced the former steam cars. Later it was a bus depot and survived into the PTE era, but has now been demolished and the site has other commercial uses.
