Rochdale Infirmary

ROCHDALE INFIRMARY: Balloon ascent venue

Aerial view 2018

NOTES: Probably in the late 19^th century, possibly in the early 20^th century. Balloon ascents at festivals to raise money for hospitals where quite a common feature in the 19^th century.

Did the ascent actually take place in nearby Falinge Park perhaps?
