Chatburn, The Village 1921

More about this scene
We are at the top of the street seen in photograph No 71178. The Black Bull, where the people are standing, was built in 1855; it was a Blackburn Brewery Company pub, and so was the Brown Cow. Can you see the two motor bikes and sidecars in our photograph? These were very popular in the inter-war years with young people, for they were a cheap form of transport. The one nearest the camera seems to have the lady driving and the gentleman in the sidecar.
