Notes From College Bank is an ongoing project which documents the College Bank buildings in Rochdale, Greater Manchester. ​Known locally as ‘The Seven Sisters’, College Bank is formed of seven high-rise social housing blocks, four of which have come under recent threat of demolition. 

​Drawing from found imagery and photographs taken by my late Grandfather - M J Burgess - who like me grew up in Rochdale, I’ve been working with past and present residents to create a collective record of life in and around College Bank.​

This project is ongoing, if you would like to share your stories of College Bank please get in touch via email - elliewaters@hotmail.co.uk.
