This is a really amazingly good - and very rare - colour pic of our Market in 1961. I bring this to you thanks to reader Charles who is @eddy_ginger on Twitter. Send me more!!
Charles found it on this website based in the US. Click on the pic to get a bigger view.
That is very cool! It would be great to get a collection of photos and stories about that area put together.
ReplyDeleteA fascinating slice of local history! I can almost see Albert and Harold Steptoe there... ;^)
ReplyDeleteMy goodness I was searching for a picture of this market, so happy to see this. I spent many a weekend down there with my mum in the early sixties. I remember them selling live chickens! I actually wanted to see one of those cold damp looking pictures, because that's how I remember it!
