The junction that will always be known as Tannery Corner?

A recent surge of interest in my blog of February 24th, 2015, about the changing face of North Street near the junction with Bolton Road (Tannery Corner) has brought to light the photographs above and below. Taken in the late 1990s by Steven Mitchell, they show the old tannery before the building was knocked down. 

Janet Mitchell said her husband took the photos because he suspected the building might not be there for ever.

My photos above and below show the corner as it is today.
