Corbett Street and Victoria Mill, Rochdale, Lancashire
Taken from the junction with Bulwer Street. The industrial building is the Victoria Mill, originally a cotton waste processing concern, but by 1979 being used for warehousing. At the slight kink in the road, the street name changes to Chestnut Place, which also bends round to the right at the end. The view further on of the house backs only became possible with the removal of the railway embankment, and these houses are on Oswald Street, (centre right) and Entwisle Road (far right).

House backs, Ramsay Street and Corbett Street, Rochdale, Lancashire
Looking east from Bulwer Street, this shows the narrow lane dividing the backs of houses on Ramsay Street from those of the next street to the north, Corbett Street. The back lanes were wide enough for a tradesman's barrow, but not for a motor car usually.

Wardleworth Bridge, Rochdale, Lancashire, from the east
This was the railway bridge carrying the ex-L.Y.R. Rochdale to Facit branch, which spanned the upper part of Yorkshire Street. Seen here from the east, this bridge was later removed after the branch line had become completely disused. On each of the abutments can be discerned a coat of arms, which was that of the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway.

Oswald Street, Rochdale, Lancashire
Many thousands of brick-built terrace homes almost identical with these were built in Rochdale and the other cotton towns of Lancashire, mostly during the late Victorian years. Most of them were rented property when first built.
At the bend in Oswald Street above, Selby Street joins from the right (east).
