description:
Rachel Goodyear and James Hutchinson have visited cities across the Pennines and recorded the sounds of evening newspaper sellers. Speakers playing the sounds have been installed around the artists' garden in Failsworth. Each speaker has been placed strategically around the space in order to emmulate the
positioning of newstands in a city centre.

To find the work, go up the ginnel between Cooparation Street and Derby Street (see map) and follow the signs. Buses are the 82 and 83 which run from Oldham Street, Manchester and Oldham Bus Station. The nearest train station is Hollinwood on the line from Victoria, Manchester.
