Back of oldham Rd/Anita St. Church. The Smiths.
Mill pond, Ancoats - Imagine in the 80's/early 90's before this area was done up & it was all just derelict- It wasn't fenced off in those days.
Metal kerb, Jersey St.
Chris M and Adele C. Long may it continue.
Empty flats - I know I've posted these before and my pics are repetative but there's just so much to see.
Since 1994.
Old Mill Street.
Queensbury Court - In the early/mid 90's someone on the eleventh floor had a calor gas heater which exploded blowing out one of the walls. No one got killed or even hurt and before the reclad you could see the different coloured bricks where the wall had been rebuilt.
Pablo - Collyhurst St.
Shops, closed.
Guess who's bought their house - Fair play to them though, it'll be just as nice inside. And that lead stuff for the windows is quite hard to get hold of these days.
Some birds.
Steps up to where?
Collyhurst Village.
Collyhurst FYM.
The Shiredale
The Jolly Miller
Better put your house up for sale. In the years to come.
Get your hands out of your pockets.
Jolly Miller estate.
Snigger.
Must've been a cinema at one time - Kenyon Lane, Moston. E2a - I can remember it being a bingo hall in the 80's.
These pads have never been lived in.
Wooden street sign - You can tell it's old because the postcode M10 was done away with years ago.

It's a fucking disgrace that there are people homeless, and people being turfed out of their houses for daring to have one box room too many, when there are perfectly fine houses up and down the country either left derelict, or being pulled down. It's makes me properly angry

Very much so. The housing shortage...well, it's not about a shortage of houses anyway.

More to do with a shortage of political will to sort it out.
We'll have a pint in the Dusty Miller.
And another in the Old Boar's Head. My dad used to sing that to me as a lullaby. Fuck knows why, he wasn't from Middleton. Mind you, back in the days of affordable public transport people used to go drinking all over the rover.That second pub is the Old Boar's Head btw.
Nice looking stairs at Arrow mill, Rochdale.
Farrels.
Row of shops. Was ere. Queens Drive Kirkholt, Rochdale.
Daventry Rd, Nut n Bolt.
Kirkholt WMC.
Reckhead Romans 2009 - The guy's surname is Romans so it's not a critique of the decadence displayed during the later days of the Roman Empire.
The white houses, Kirkholt.
Flats at the back of the shops.
Beware.
This looks like it's hardly changed since the estate was built in the forties.
Dec's fallen out of favour.
Kirkholt shops.
Kildare Crescent, Nut n Bolt.I lived on this estate for about eight years - I'm not going to slag it off, but it never felt like home to me. If you grew up there though, it'll probably be an ok place to live.
All these things happened within yards of my gaffe while I was living there

The second one was worse than it sounds - The guy got chopped up with machetes - He was lucky to survive.
The way back from the shop.
It's a decent chippy - The guy's won awards for his fish.
The main shop on Kirkholt - This used to be a pub called the Lord Howard.
Pebbledashed. 
The local lads in the area have been using slats off the wooden fences as inprovised weapons since the place got built.
Flats up nut n bolt.
Aldwych.
The Strand. There's no unifying theme of street names on Kirkholt, there's loads of streets that begin with D, there's the london themed efforts like the strand then there's Wasp Avenue and Hornet Close - Streets named after stinging insects.
Kirkholt WMC.
Rob.
Kirkway.
Kirkway Kurtains.
Yeah.
Linden.
You just aren't selling it to me.

Merged a couple of different exposures to balance out the sky, but the light was fairly orange to start with.
Now that I think about it, there must still be some people living in that block as the lights were out on the other ones.
