Redevelopment has completely changed this scene from 10th May 1980 at Tame Water, where 5006 is swinging round the corner at the bottom of Wall Hill Road to head towards Delph. The buildings on the right formed the warehouse of J. T. Sykes and Sons. This was Tame Bridge Mill which once even had a railway connection from the Delph line, although this was taken out of use in the very early 20th century. Sykes had five shops (four in Saddleworth and one in Shaw) and proclaimed themselves as Corn Millers, Grocers and Provision Dealers and as specialists in cheese, bacon and ham. To the left of the bus can be seen the yard of Kenlyn Garage, which was Ken Shaw's garage and coach depot. By the time of this photo Shaw's had sold out to Stott's of Oldham and there were two disused former Burnley and Pendle PD2s in the yard, one of which is visible.
