So am I right in thinking all the shops on Broadway lower down than the Odeon/Pickwick and the shop that later became Wardleworths new bookshop on the corner of Union st. including Woolworths and Marks and Spencers are part of the 'Arndale' ........ don't think we had 'Cell Phones/Mobiles' in those days.

wonder if the Evening Telegraph has a link to Accringtons sunken gardens
