Newport Street, Bolton, 1984
We know that Looking Back readers love a good street scene from years gone by. This photo shows Newport Street, Bolton in 1984.
Do you remember the various shops that were there at the time? The signs certainly remind us of some very familiar high street names including Comet, Currys and Dolcis.
It’s also interesting to note that almost 40 years ago there were still a few ‘to let’ and ‘for sale’ signs knocking around.
What are your memories of Newport Street back then? Leave a comment.
