Birchcliffe - Nutclough - ALC08252
You can clearly see that Nutclough Mill, in the centre of the picture, was built in stages. The dark part is the earliest, it was extended to one side and then the other and then upwards. To the left of the mill you can see the town's gas holder. This was in use prior to the building of the gas works at Crow Nest with its gas holder on Station Road.
On the Birchcliffe hillside the new Birchcliffe Chapel is being built and Chapel Avenue houses do not exist.

Todmorden Buses - MOT00448
Bus, Gasometer, Municipal Undertakings, Open Top Bus, Transport
The fleet of five buses of the Todmorden Motor Bus Committee and crews photographed on the lane leading to the electricity destructor, where the buses where garaged.
An Act of Parliament in 1906 allowed the Corporation to provide a bus service for the town. Four buses were ordered and on January 1st 1907, the first bus travelled along the Walsden Valley. In July 1908 it was decided to continue the bus service, but it was only in the 1920s that more routes were opened up, one route to Lumbutts, another to Oxenhope. In 1931 the service became a joint undertaking with L.M.S. Railway, and later, British Rail. In recent years (1993) it has become part of Yorkshire Rider Ltd.

The Todmorden Gas Company, an independent enterprise, was formed around 1848. In 1887 the Local Board were in favour of purchasing the gas company, but the asking price £69,569, was too high and it was not until 1893, when the Gas Purchases Act was passed, that the Local Board finally acquired the gas undertaking.

Woodhouse Mill, built in 1832, was sited directly alongside the Rochdale Canal to take advantage of the transport facilities and process water. The small engine house can be seen on the left of the mill. The chimney was detached from the mill in order to obtain the best draught for the boilers. Prior to a devastating fire, scaffolding had been erected as part of a renovation scheme.
