TODAY’S Looking Back photograph shows a street scene most of us will be very familiar with.
What struck us most about this picture was the number of shops that no longer exist in Deansgate, Bolton town centre, including Woolworth.
The photograph was taken in February 1965 and shows Deansgate looking from Marks and Spencer towards the market cross in Churchgate.
Further along the road we can see the once famous department store Whiteheads and Prestons.
