Looking towards Prestwich, the door used to lead into a newsagent's shop, but the building has been empty for many years. A two-storey extension is just visible at the rear behind the tree trunk.

Kersal Bar Toll House, Kersal, Salford
This view was taken from the opposite side of Bury New Road. The two-storey addition along the back must have been added after the building was listed, as the description there says: "Former toll house, latterly in use as shop, but now disused. Early C19. Stucco over brick with slate roof felted over, and stack on right hand side. Single-storey, octagonal single-unit plan with additional rectangular bay to right. Entrance to left, windows in gable facing street and to right, both replaced but with original drop-ended hoodmoulds over. Probably the only surviving toll house in the Manchester and Salford area."

Kersal Bar Toll House, Bury New Road, Salford
On the corner of Moor Lane and Bury Old Road, Kersal, Salford. When I was a student in a nearby hostel, this was a paper shop selling a few food items. Rather than do the 15 minute walk into college for our weekend evening meal, we often bought scones or sausage rolls here to eat in our rooms. It closed some years ago and now stands empty.
A few years ago I discovered it used to be a toll house known as Kersal Bar. When Bury New Road was built in 1831 a gate or bar was erected and travellers had to pay a toll to the turnpike trust to pass through. The toll house had bay window projecting out so that the toll collector had a clear view of the road. By 1848 the local authority had taken over the road and the tolls were abolished. The exterior of the house remains largely unchanged to this day, although it was renovated in 2007 with a two-storey extension being added to the rear. The Toll House is now a Grade II listed building.
