Going back a little further than you were thinking, Barrett’s Directory for 1947 rather interestingly makes your recollection and mine coincide.
A firm called Wolstenholme and Broughton, who are described as “Toy dealers” are listed at both 98 Blackburn Road (about 4 premises past Edgar Street going towards Blackburn) and also at 35 Warner Street (apparently about 10 properties up from Church Street).
