Mollie I too have fond memories of the old town, my first job was in Sawbridges butchers in the Commercial yard 1968, the town was vibrant with shops, Picture places ( cinemas,) pubs, clubs ,newspaper sellers calling,
" Lancashire post" at the top of the arcade, More ' Corpy buses' than you could count, Jackson the Tailor, Timpsons shoes, Lowes, UCP , the bobby directing traffic at the top of Wallgate, he always stopped traffic to let me through as i cycled up on my butchers bike with the basket on the front, The tobacconists shop, King St, Library St all the town was buzzing.
