More about this scene

Chapel Street is framed by the arched entrance to St Mary's Roman Catholic Church and its grounds. The arch is a memorial to a past priest, Father Crank, and was put up in 1913. Even in the 1960s, this part of Chorley was a one-way system to help ease the traffic problems. Today this area is pedestrianised, and the whole of Chorley centre seems to be a one-way system.

Can anyone remember my grandad Mark Gregory? He had an Antique or Second Hand shop called The Mart, he died when I was young. I am doing a family tree and need to find as much info as possible about him to enable me to continue my search as I lost my father in 2004. Thank you
I was at the market in the 60's, my mum was living with my cousin, Catherine Murphy and mum had to go into hospital. I am trying to get in touch with my cousin - can anyone help, my name is Jim Reilly and i live in Scotland.
