View along Rochdale Canal and Canal Street

“including the opening of Manto in 1991”

This one is a favourite: the view along Rochdale Canal and Canal Street looking towards Princess Street.

The top photo is from around 1989 and was kindly provided by Paul Crompton whilst the bottom photo is from Decemeber 2023.

Incredible change and regeneration in this hugely important part of the city over the past four decades or so, including the opening of Manto in 1991 by Carol Ainscow and Peter Dalton (now ON Bar, located to the right of the bridge).
