I'm thinking it was Market St. Ran between Northgate and King William St.
Ribblesdale pub opposite at one end and the old Market Hall at the other

yer talking the sawdust on the floor days, ferget the street name, but the "Sun" thwaites house was just above n the "Swan" duttons house just above that on the corner, if any of those pubs are still standing- thats yer street! street names where useless after a few white wines.

Cashy, I've got it in my mind it was on a street over from the Sun and Swan , Johnny Forbes sports shop on one end (Northgate) and Burtons at the other end (King William St. ). Got to nearly 40 years since I was last in , so the mind might be playing tricks

was just a couple of doors below the "Sun" on the same street/road, defo, was well trashed in those days, but remember going in when i was ejected from the "Sun" one night, n ya had to be real classy to get chucked out of there.

Forceten , you were right Lord st ..This Is Lancashire - Mystery of old Yates's Wine Lodge

I remember a shopping arcade Victorian style where my mum once bought me a hat. It was near a large cobbled open market area where my uncle had a stall selling army surplus stuff.
It is difficult to think where on the map it was -somewhere under the now demolished Arndale is the best I can do.

The TSB bank is on Lord Street.....The NALGO Club was on the corner leading onto Cardwell Place.....Haworth and Nutall solicitors is facing the TSB but I cannot for the life of me recall Yates's on that stretch?
