Rostron Brow
Rostron Brow was once a busy thoroughfare between Lower Hillgate and Churchgate Street. It was home to two early pubs called the Dust Hole and Hare & Hounds. These later became places of ill repute and were pulled down by the Victorians. The building at the top on the left Image was built as a warehouse by a Mr Hall, who bought the site in 1899. The former landlord of the demolished Hare & Hounds in the 1880s, Albert Crossley, ran an eating house in this same building. It was later known as Crossley's Tea Rooms and Dance Hall. Despite its derelict appearance the building is now home to an award winning restaurant "Where the Light Gets In" on the top floor.
