LAST week’s picture was correctly identified by a number of our readers.
There were some people, though, who could not place it and it is not difficult to understand why that would be the case, as the area has changed so much over the years.
It was, in fact, Cheadle Square looking towards what is now the Crown Court building.
Correct answers came from Stuart Hartigan, Catherine Ward, John Radcliffe and Councillor John Walsh, who correctly pointed out at the church in the back ground is St Paul’s.
Bolton town centre has changed considerably over the years as last week’s picture goes to prove.
So what about this week’s photograph — we are optimistic that many of you will recognise the spot where this image was taken. It is a leafy suburb of the borough and this particular photograph was taken in April 1976, just before the long, hot summer of that year.
As you might guess, the road is very much busier than it was then.
