Phyll Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 23 hours ago, Alan said: The Theatre Royal I remember is a Victorian stone-fronted building. At a guess that photo dates from the 1960s Alan, I think this is the old one, it was near my old Dentist Dr. Clegg. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 My memory says it was an estate agent 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kizzy Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 I recall that building as (possibly an estate agents) in the 50s.) Clegg (the butcher) was in the adjoining building on the left hand side. I had the misfortune to go to him once... The few times I went to the theatre (up in the Gods to see a matinee) we went in the door around the side in Charles St, opposite Holy Cross club where dances were held on a Friday night in the early 60s 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Posted September 29 Share Posted September 29 Remember it well. Remember even more our wedding day in the Parish Church at the end of October being disturbed by a band accompanying Santa Clause from the railway station to Oxleys. Folk moan about Christmas coming too early these days but that was nearly three months before the day! added 21 minutes later Sorry, that should have said nearly TWO months before the day 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
