Former warehouses, Pollard Street, Manchester
The nearer was built for the Co-operative Society, c1900, long and low. Now offices. The further, with its chimney, was the Vulcan Works, an ironworks of c1888-89. Now flats. Grade II listed.
In the foreground are tram extension works. The wall is part of a bridge going under Great Ancoats Street. I think this is the East Manchester line which will run from Piccadilly to Droylsden (by 2012) and Ashton-under-Lyne (by 2013-14).

Lock No 2, Ashton Canal, Manchester
The Ashton Canal starts to climb almost immediately from its western end, the surroundings being the heavy industry of Victorian Lancashire. This was taken in 1981 but there has been much clearance of older buildings since then.
