What date would this be?

I remember Park Road inthe 60s, the bit between Gidlow Lane was full of handy shops, co-op, Bill Leyland's newsagent, Percy Gaskell barber, Jesse kay and Billy Walsh butchers, chip shop, pie shop, a couple of sweet shops, another shop on corner of Hardy Street, Bibby's? greengrocer, Johnson's chemist. Walked down there a couple of years ago and it was sad, nothing but hairdressers and tanning salons.
