Rochdale station, looking toward Manchester
The view south shows one platform edge of the former Manchester side of the station, as large again as the current station and taken out of use in the 1970s. The yellow sign on the left indicates 10.5 miles from Manchester Victoria via the original Manchester & Leeds Railway route via Miles Platting.

Rochdale: Remains of a urinal, Milkstone Road
This urinal stood next to the bridge carrying the railway over Milkstone Road. It was almost opposite the Brown Cow, and was very useful to passengers walking to or from the back entrance of the station. The steps served a footpath leading to Riley's Spring Works; whether this path is still patent I am not aware.

Rag and Bone Man, Miall Street, Rochdale, Lancashire
Rag and bone men are no longer seen in Rochdale but in the 1950's they were common. Most had just handcarts with wheels recovered from old mangles - only the more 'aristocratic' men had any kind of horse or donkey. Here a typical rag and bone man is seen in Miall Street, a long and dismal street that ran (and still does) behind the railway station.

Rochdale: Shops on Milkstone Road
This parade of local shops is beginning to suffer from closures as out-of-town shopping with the car takes away more and more trade. At the far left hand en is seen what once was the 'Brown Cow' public house - now itself closed and converted into a 'minimart'.
