Doing Rochdale in Style
In celebration of 50 years since the release of the Beatles' Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, Rochdale Style magazine has put together a double page spread on Rochdale's part in its history, written by Richard Lysons.
Proud to be in the town in which the now famous circus event was hosted, Rochdale Style kindly asked us if they could feature our very own Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite print. Here's a snippet:
The circus was held at Town Meadows which is now the site of Rochdale Police Station and the Memorial Gardens. The bridge that crosses the Roch at this point is still called Town Meadows Bridge.
