The Smith Street car park
The Smith Street car park next to the former Mecca Bingo in Rochdale town centre is now being run by Rochdale Council.
The car park was previously operated by Parkingeye as a pay and display for Mecca Bingo customers, and comes under council control as the former bingo hall is now under offer.
