Blandford Street is typical of many of the streets of terraced brick houses in Ashton. The houses in this area were built in the late 19th Century on streets which formed a grid pattern.
The photo looks eastwards towards the town centre from close to the junction with Richmond Street. Assheton House, a block of flats, is prominent in the distance.
