A wonderfully evocative picture of a time when road works only needed a Keep Right sign. Hope Baptist Church is on the left and the Picture House to the right. The bridge over the road between the two parts of Crossley Mill can be seen.
Above the barge is the Picture House and opposite Hope Baptist Chapel. The timber structures have been replaced with a building providing appartments on the upper floor and various facilities on the ground floor including Visitor Information Centre.
