Also, Bob Dobson talks in one of his books that the Regal cinema was built on the site of Myers Stable ... this does resemble more of a large stabling building ... not a mill ?
The streets look that they are ones running up to Cobman Street/Whalley Road. Mason Street, etc. Can't see where the first little street is named anywhere ?
Though Retlaw doesn't think there is a culvert there .. does seem to make sense with the run of the river.

Thanks, Kate, that's swung me back to my original theory - it's Broadway when it was first built.
