This is the road from the Common Road and Blackwell Road junction looking towards the Market Place on the right and the Peacock Inn and Workpeoples Inn (not in shot) on the left beyond the houses on the left. During the 1950s the shop in the left foreground was a newsagents owned by a Mr Gelsthorpe and the first shop in the second block after Gelsthorpe's was a shoe repairers run by Mr Towle. Date of this photo not known but clearly pre-dates the 1950s.
