Title

The Bird i'th Hand, Rochdale Road, Warland - TAS00119

Description

A regular truck stop for hungry lorry drivers, much the same as modern day service areas on our motorways. Standing outside the doorway of the Bird i'th Hand inn is a Leyland very similar to the one owned and used by the LMS Railway at Todmorden Station and Goods Yard. Most of the loads seem to be destined for the town's cotton mills, and the nearest waggon is loaded with wicker bobbin skips.
