Rochdale Past - 07707 865433

Rochdale Past is a page dedicated to promoting Rochdale in all its forms with a special focus on Heritage within the Metropolitan Borough.

Created with a hope to inspire pride, nostalgia and commitment to this great town. As a outsider from Rochdale, but quickly welcomed in, I noticed the people of this great town with is long and varied history didn't seem to appreciate it as much as other towns. I felt it undeservedly gets talked down by a lot of the people I meet. I love local history and hoped this would be a good way to find out more about Rochdale's past, but most of all I think the power of a good photograph to create thoughts and feelings would be the best conduit to get together a community of like minded people to try and make a difference in whatever form that takes.
