Can't say I like the style, why on earth are they building balconies on houses in the North of England, completely out of character. What a shame the old buildings weren't just rennovated. I used to go to the surgery on Blackburn Rd., not far along from the corner of Lonsdale St., as a child -Dr.Harbinson's -it was a lovely stone built house and I remember it still had a lot of original features in -fireplaces etc.
