Who remembers spending a few hours at this building in Bolton?
Silverwell Street Sports Centre offered a range of activities including badminton and squash. This photograph was taken in 1979 when it was announced it would host the North West badminton championships.
The venue - which many may remember as the Drill Hall - hosted events such as car shows and even a circus in its time.
It closed in 1995 and was demolished three years later replaced by a housing development.
