Yes i think your spot on with that Jaysay. As you say, was an awful lot of building work going on around then, as as you say (and the map shows too) that you could then walk straight up Lord Street, parallel to Church Street, and then Yates was on the left hand side..i'd got confused between Lord Street and Church Street. I guess it would have been around or after 75, i'd started work in Blackburn in 74 and can remember the new one opening but wasn't sure just when. Do you know anything about the Chinese Wadey is mentioning there, or is he perhaps getting mixed up with the one over the Market Hall?
