Bolton town centre from Bolton Town Hall in 1947
This image from The Bolton News archives gives you a view from the crow's nest on Bolton Town Hall in 1947.
To the left Newport Street makes its way to Holy Trinity Church and Coronation Street joins Asburner Street to Great Moor Street.
In the centre foreground are the two large shelters of the former wholesale market which closed in 1932 when the present Ashburner Street market opened.
