Even though there are no leaves on the trees, Lord Street is still busy; as at Blackpool, trippers visit all year round. Next to William Deacon's Bank is the Great Wall Restaurant, one of the first Chinese restaurants to open outside a major city.

If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?

I moved to Southport in 1978 and worked at Manz World, I worked with three of the best guys I have ever known, David Pitson, Paul Foreman and Peter Poulter. If anybody remembers me I would love to hear from you.
I started work at Henry Cardin's hairdressing in Lord Street. Lovely girls, Pam and Vanessa, where are you? I live in Malvern now, I did very well and am now retired. Arthur.
