Meanwhile Looking Back readers have come up trumps identifying some of the people featured in recently published Chris Porsz photographs.
The people in the picture taken in Bridge Street were identified by Sandra Goodley.
She said: “The sleeping lady is Mrs Cole with her son Billy.’’
Carolyn Clark also got in touch. She said of the other picture: “The couple are brother and sister Olga and Vernon Kitchen.
“Together with other brother Ray they all remained unmarried and lived in Crawthorne Road until their deaths.”
