LAST week’s photograph proved simple for some of our readers but more complicated for others.
Those of you who live in this town will know the location immediately.
Doreen Taylor recognised Brackley Street in Farnworth as did Stan Fox, Alan Hurst, David Strickleton, Anthony Bousfield, Jim Catte, Stephen Bailey, Lorraine McNamara, Tommy Walker who lives in Farnworth and Elsie Hodgkiss who tells us the picture was taken “before the demolition of the lovely building which was the Co-op — I did think that this was a listed building.
“I notice that the Co-op Pharmacy is there on the right; a little further up, out of the picture, was York’s Furniture Store.
“ What a lot of changes there have been since then - and not for the better I am afraid. Poor old Farnworth,” she says. Where was this week’s picture taken? Email gayle.mcbain@nqnw.co.uk and we will include as many correct answers as possible next week.
