Keswick Street - Castleton Moor Cricket Club
The picture shows the housing development on the Keswick Street ground of Castleton Moor Cricket Club who used to play in the Central Lancashire League.
As the cricket club struggled into the 1980's, Mayfield Amateur Rugby League Club became partners in the ground but when the cricket folded in 1987, it passed to them. In 2005, Mayfield sold the ground for housing and moved into the nearby Butterworth Park to ground-share with Castleton Gabriels FC.
The old cricket pavilion was on a slope to the left of the photograph and the extension to Keswick Street passes right over the old cricket square.

Public Swimming Baths, Castleton, Rochdale, Lancashire
In former days, local authorities took their responsibilities very seriously and were always striving to improve the environment for their residents. This fine Public Baths building was constructed by the Borough of Rochdale shortly after the Urban District of Castleton had been absorbed into Rochdale, (the actual date of this being 9 April 1900) and are still in use, having provided recreational facilities for many thousands of working-class people over the years.

Former The Farewell Public House, Manchester Road, Castleton
There was no obvious indication of its current use from where I was standing, & it was raining, so I didn't bother investigating further.
