Tour de France comes to Rochdale
Above the entrance to Gordon Rigg's Garden Centre is this yellow bicycle promoting the 2014 race. As the peloton turns left into Halifax Road at the top of the Cragg Vale climb it will have travelled 0.33 miles in Rochdale.

Crawford Mill, Rochdale
Thanks to Dr Neil Clifton I have been able to pin this down. It is apparently one of two mills known as "Crawford Mills". The canal is just in front of the concrete panelling and the ring road is just to the right of the shot. I photographed this at the same time as the nearby State Mill. The building was obviously in a poor state then and the satellite image shows a modern industrial building in this location.

Rochdale Kingsway Business Park
This is the entrance off the A664, Kingsway, to the south of Rochdale. The 177 hectare business park is still being developed and when open will be a major plank in Rochdale's economic regeneration. Other entrances to the park are off a re-configured junction 21 on the M62 at Milnrow.
