Brilliant! Just brilliant! Somebody has put a lot of work into this. WELL DONE
Older Rochdale was so beautiful & had so much character, the architecture & shop fronts were breathtaking…..
This video is both sad and beautiful at the same time. The sadness coming from the deterioration and the loss of community that once was but also the beauty of what was and the rich history of this town. This video is not just some normal watch, this is an art piece and the content shows that you really put time into this and studied this great town and i appreciate your time and dedication. Sir you have gained a like and a subscription.
Wonderful. A more vibrant place then than it is now(2022)
What an absolutely fantastic video of the history of Rochdale. Thank you for making it, it must have taken a very long time to make with all the comparisons.
I loved watching this it's the closest you can get to going back in time. I find it fascinating what once was & now is. Thank you 👍🏽
Thank you for this wonderful, pictorial history of Rochdale.It's a precious reminder of what a great place it was. Sadly, most of the buildings that should have been kept and maintained were razed to the ground. Only the old buildings are worth a second glance. The town is a disgrace these days.
Live in Cornwall now, aged 66. Born and bred in Rochdale. Left when I was 16 to join the RN. Great video.
It’s a wreck now, makes me cry seeing how beautiful it was, councillor have ruined this area born in the 80s but got a piece of the good times
I was born here in Rochdale birch hill hospital and went to knowl view School
@@leeandrew8987 I was born at Birch hill as well
@@LayLoow it literally looks more or less the same 100 years later. Most the Same buildings in the same place the same road layouts etc
Wonderful, really enjoyed this and well put together. Thank you.
Great video. Thank you. Rochdale was a great place. Plenty of characters. Not as good now, like most places.
That was fascinating, thank you.
Thanks for compiling and posting. It brought back happy memories of a happy childhood growing up in Rochdale.
A tremendous story film shows the beauty of its maker and shows the immense importance of life, which is not eternal.
Wonderful compilation. The story of so many large towns north of Birmingham. I love them all!
Beautiful Love it ❤❤❤
Wow what an amazing didn't even realise about the Manor.i grew up in rochdale and didn't even realise about the Manor what an absolutely fantastic video thank you for sharing👍
Your slides and presentations are all fantastic! Thank you. Looking for Halifax Road, Buttershaw and around Horsefall Playing Fields...I wonder what you have! :-) Keep up the brill work!
I love seeing the history of places. This makes me quite sad though. I often look at the old abandoned buildings and think these were something at one time and it's such a shame they're no longer looked after. Rochdale could be so much better.
so true - and these buildings were better built than the block rubbish they put up now
Well done. Excellent work!
900 years in the making of Rochdale for it to be destroyed by 90 years of immigration, it’s crazy how a town can go so wrong, rip the dale
Yeah course it's the immigrants fault. Absolutely nothing to do with the likes of you and me favouring supermarkets and Amazon over the high street, right? Nothing to do with a lack of investment from Government. Its always the immigrants fault
Fantastic job, keep up the good work.
Born and raised in Rochdale....I did what I could to get out, and now that I have I sort of miss the place.
I worked in Rochdale for 15 years at a company named holcrofts located at the whitworth, littleborough roundabout.. The factory was demolished in 1988, I've not been back to the town since but have very fond memories of the town. The flying horse pub was a favourite place to socialise with work friends.
Peter dockrill9653 my dad worked at holcrofts.
@@bennhoey1966. What was his name, I was there until it closed in 1988
@@peterdockrill9653 he was called peter hoey. He was there until it closed in 1988.
thank you for this it helps me figure out the town centres history
These videos with their before/after scenes of cities and towns are always fascinating though it's sad seeing the existing countryside surrounding these towns slowly disappear under houses and factories. There were so many people on the streets 100 years ago. Now those same streets are almost deserted. How sad they look. Also, some of the slum, or almost slum areas, were very depressing, and alas, the same areas nowadays are just as depressing but in a different way. Gone are the streets of slum properties only to be replaced with grim brick square buildings or sad commercial buildings with not a soul in sight. It is a pity though that some of those very old, beautiful properties weren't kept as a reminder of the past.
Good old memories sad it gone should kept some for tourist attractions
I remember this part of the country from the mid 80's... especially where I am now; - there were very few cars parked around and most people used the double decker bus to go shopping... - only when the Freemasons were having a meeting did we see so many cars....
Top Banana 😊 I'll subscribe 😀
Everywhere today is a change for the worst.
I was there the other day, - nice enough place, - not much outdoor seating unless you have money for the one pub that I could find open....
Good young children and older interesting
Damn king street
Very interesting, the first piece of music stirs me. What is it? Vaughan Williams ??
hi, the links to all the music used is on my description above, just click to drop down the details🙂and the links to the piece
I have never been to Rochdale, sadly, but it all seemed so familiar through the ages. This is the story of Rochdale, but it is also the story of every town of any size north of Derby, where I grew up. Hence the familiarity. You recorded well the vandalism of senseless demolition in all eras, culminating in the steel and concrete horrors of the 1960s and later.
So many gems have been lost over the years to civic development and we are all the poorer for it. One of the latest was the Crooked House pub in Dudley. Sold by Marston's to a property developer, it mysteriously caught fire after the access road was mysteriously blocked by truckload of debris to prevent the fire service was unable to access it with the result that it was gutted. Mystery no.3 was when it was demolished in the night before anyone could organise remedial action. Vandalism comes in many forms and apparently no-one had thought to seek listed status. Now it is gone forever, famous though it was among the local community.
Many of the NOW photos are too kind to how things are really looking how the place has been dragged down since, the grooming & all the other imported wonderful! pasttimes sad sad indeed
Full of pa🔑 now
16:26 I'm now convinced that Rochdale was inhabited by pygmies at the turn of the 1900's. The houses on Maud Street in the old image look huge and imposing next to the size of the adult woman stood in the doorway. I went to the primary school on Maud Street and the houses didn't seem so huge to me back then in the late 70's / early 80's.
CREDE SIGNO 💙 🤍
You would think you are in a different country now.
Like most towns in the North,dumping grounds!
So wonderful to see some of my childhood memories of rochdale brought to life....
I moved away 15 years ago...unable any longer to watch the demise of a once beautiful community....now disrespected and ravaged by immigration....
Very sad place it is today!!!
not immigration, the council are corrupt and not spending on community or maintaining buildings.
Totally agree with you on that one.Over the years its been destroyed!
I'm sure Mr Galloway will get everything sorted in no time at all 😂😂😂

" shit hole"!, now, no matter how much money they throw at the town centre, go from there in any direction, and within a few minutes " you will understand why"!, can,t comment more, cause i,d get banned.
truly understand, i feel that many towns are like that now in the UK, i feel sad myself when i see the difference from 100 years ago
