Buckley Farm Lane, Rochdale, Lancashire
In the 15 years that have elapsed since my 1951 photograph, the appearance of Buckley Farm Lane has changed considerably. It now presents as a modern motor road, with metalled surface and raised footpath. Only the cottages remain as a link with the previous picture.

Buckley Farm Lane, Rochdale, Lancashire
At the time of this photograph, (1951), Buckley Farm Lane still presented a remarkably rural appearance, with large cobbles and absence of any footway. The old man, possibly on his way for his lunchtime 'pint', adds to the sense of an England that has now passed away.
Amazingly, well over 60 years after the photograph was taken, the identity of the senior citizen has emerged. He is Isaac John Tonks, and was on his way to meet his wife to help her carry her shopping home. I received this information from Mr. Tonks' greatgranddaughter.

The continuation of Buckley Lane
It is quite clear that vehicles cannot go straight ahead along the route of Buckley Lane. However pedestrians are not allowed to go up the road to the right. Is it just because they didn't want to spend money on a pavement?

Heading north Buckley Lane, beyond its junction with Buckley Road and Rydings Road, is now cobbled and is a footpath closed to traffic. Rydings Road now carries road traffic north beyond this point and is signposted as private road closed to pedestrians.

Big slug
Compared with a 2p coin. I'm not claiming a record, just that the damp summer has encouraged many large specimens like this.
