Hi guys, it has been a very long time since I posted here...

I come to you today asking for help... :)
I'm a photographer, and I'm tasked with finding a location for a 1960's themed fashion editorial. I'm looking for a street or area that looks "lost in time" Preferably without being filled with cars etc... And within about 25 miles of Accy...

Does anyone know of a secret spot? :) or have any thoughts or ideas?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
 
some of the old cobbled streets round bacup are quite good for that sort of thing esp, round the police station (used as the frontage in juliet bravo)

for a more rural feel helmshore is quite good also

Bacup is a good shout its all lost in time up there ,you will know when you get there all the jumpers on the washing lines have three arms:D:D
 
Not quite sure what background you want but the old terraced houses are 1900 + or - not 1960.At 1960 time, houses were more like the council type or just red bricked.There are some houses which were built in the late 50's just off Burnley Rd. on Woodside Rd. which are quite unique and in a fairly quite place(if there is one these days.A photo from Google is attached.

Were they not refurbished in the early 90s Les?
 
Ah yes,I remember that,Jaysay,but they are still the original buildings with that glass decoration added.Not clear on what Magaz wants.

Agree, not sure whether he wants there to be 1960's builds or just one that was built before then without many modern 'accessories' ... like 2011 cars and, worse still, satellite dishes.. :)
