Runcorn, Devonshire Place 1961

More about this scene
The top of the High Street was known officially as Devonshire Place, but the locals always called it Devonshire Square, even though it only had three sides. Our photographer is standing on Doctors Bridge over the Bridgewater Canal, and High Street runs left and right from the top of the square. Both the new high-level road bridge and the old transporter can be seen on our photograph. Today, Curiosities Bookshop can be found on the High Street to the right, opposite what was the La Scala Ballroom.
