Rowbotham Street 2009


This is Rowbotham Street as it looked sometime last year.

The houses near the top of Rowbotham Street at its junction with Stockport Road were demolished some years ago as you can see on Hyde Daily Photo.

See how it looked in 1984 on Old Hyde.

Gower Hey Woods:
A View Through the Trees


When I took the path from Osborne Road into Gower Hey Woods last summer, there was nothing but greenery to be seen over the moss-encrusted wall.

Spring is late, the trees are still leafless and the undergrowth has yet to emerge, leaving a clear view across to the steps leading up towards the Trans Pennine Trail.

The view in the opposite direction can be seen on Hyde Daily Photo.
