SHOPPERS gathered to celebrate the official opening of the Market Place when a special visitor arrived.
The Queen was in town, in 1988, to perform the opening ceremony for the new building that has become a major shopping complex in Bolton town centre.
Hundreds of people gathered to get a glimpse of Her Majesty as she toured the complex.
