The tavern is the building on the left in the picture.
Not visited
The centre of Rochdale was undergoing major redevelopment in the late 70s and the next two pubs were recorded and then crossed out in the book as they were demolished within the original lifetime of the project.
St James Tavern stood at the corner of Yorkshire St and John Street where buses leave the A58 and turn down the latter street towards the bus station. It was an attractive building with polished Victorian tiles but that didn't save it. A training college now occupies the site.
