Accrington May 1957.

Back in May 1957 the town centre had a nice sunken garden where folk could sit and chat in the summer sunshine. Does anyone remember it? To help your memory here is a picture that I took as well as one of The Deck as the youth of the day called it and The Coppice looking up Avenue Parade. I notice that The Coppice is covered in trees now and that would make sledging down rather hazardous, but then we don’t get much snow these days.



Incidentally although I took the pictures and therefore hold the copyright to them I am placing them in the public domain for anyone to use as they please.
