Adam Street


Looking up Adam Street, off Mossley Road, towards the back of the http://ashton-under-lyne.blogspot.com/2009/02/albion-sunday-school.html, seen from another angle yesterday.

The plain styles of the houses, with little more decoration than fancy brick or stonework over the windown and doors, contrasts with the exotic decoration and banding on the Sunday School building.

The tall windows on the upper floor of the school show where the 1000-seat hall was located.

See Google Aerial View of this location.

  1. It's a wonder that the aerials (antennas) can get a signal from Winter Hill with such a big building in the way!

  3. I see (from Live View) that the architect of the modern flats across the street paid homage by including banding in their brickwork!
