Re: Accy Old Photo's - John Kelly's Album

Time for a few more, this set are to do with CROWDS

Firstly, the dignitaries opening Broadway. The ceremony was held on the corner of Cobden St. which no longer exists. Does anyone know the date?



The next photo is of Coronation day 22/6/1911 in Abbey St. (George V)



No idea when or why on this one, but have you ever seen Accrington so packed?



A carnival passing through Queens Rd in 1920......



July 1959 A pot fair on Broadway



Who remembers the sunken gardens in 1958?



A military funeral in 1915........



Finally (for now), anyone have any ideas about this photo??
