Tesco at Sudden
Taken from a bus. There has been a Tesco on this site for a long time, and it has already had one major refurbishment, but is beginning to look dated again.

Crossroads at Sudden
Although still (January 2010) marked on the OS map as a roundabout, the intersection of Edinburgh Way (the A664, leading to the A627M and M62 motorways) with Manchester Road (the A58 to Rochdale, Manchester, Bury and Bolton) and Roch Valley Way (B6452 to Blackburn) has been re-designed.
The Sudden Roundabouts were two of the busiest junctions in Rochdale, often affected by congestion and delays, particularly during the morning and afternoon peaks.

The Waggon & Horses, Sudden
This is right on the major junction of Edinburgh Way with Manchester Road. This used to be a roundabout which was notorious for traffic queues. It is now a traffic-light-controlled crossroads, but I am not convinced this operates any better.
