What a nice clean picture. I suspect there was a lot of dodging and burning (now made obsolete by digital editing) during the processing to produce that print... :encouragement: Oh, and I never knew that had been a Dunlop property on the left! :cower:

Station Street looking towards the Market Hall

The photo is prior to 1934 as the trans were removed from Satation Street that year. Not clear from the photo but there is a stretch of double track where the tram is standing otherwise the tram would have a problem!

I must say Bernie, that although the photos are older than me, the scenes had not changed that much even by the late 50's, and I recognised them from my youth, brings back such happy memories for me, thanks for posting.paul
