Photobook - 'Notes From College Bank'

Ellie Waters is an artist based in Greater Manchester whose practice is grounded
in photography and explores themes of home, place, and belonging. She is based
at Ebor Studio in the small Pennine village of Littleborough, where this photobook was launched as part of their 2026 exhibition programme.

'Notes From College Bank' is a collaborative project that brings together her own
work, images from her late grandfather’s archive, and material developed through
close collaboration with residents of the College Bank community. She plans
to further develop the project into a community-led archive and resource that
will be housed in Rochdale and remain accessible to future generations.

The photobook runs in a limited edition of forty, each handbound and signed by the artist. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to Prost Cancer UK in support of their work.

This publication was supported by: Ebor Studio, Arts Council England, Grant Scape, The Pennines Town Ship, Rochdale Borough Council, Culture Co-Op and Creative People and Places.
