A town to be proud of then, staying the same for decades. It looks cared for and well kept.
A pleasure to go shopping on Saturday afternoons.

My father in law had a car like the one in the centre of the photo.I remember seeing a photo of it when I first got married.

Cracking photo. One of the best ones of old Standishgate.

Has anyone else noticed how dirty the buildings and windows are. Air pollution obviously not a concern back then.
