The whole of the tramways ceased to run in August 1931.The tracks would be taken up soon afterwards.
The wooden board on the bungalow is an advert for Coulson's, slaters. I remember it well.
IF the procession headed from the park towards Church, it would likely turn into Henry St, then left onto Blackburn Rd, so we may be looking at a block on the Church side of the Queen's hall/Tudor cinema. On that block in 1951 there was a bank, newsagent and (in the middle) a hardware dealer. How can we get some Churchites interested in this thread/photo. ?
