[@christophernewman5027]

I much prefer old Plymouth...
Many thanks, Sir. Wonderful, as always.
Your music tends to stay with me for days...

Ah! I see the plymouth of my youth 1960s, great times, great place.
Today it's a bit of a mess, but the real plymouth people are still a delight.

[@daydays12]

You were around when I was around - in my youth too! I liked Mutley, North Hill, the Old Museum art Gallery and Library, the Barbican and the Hoe. I lived for a while in Stoke and Lipson...and North Hill

[@Kaycee907]

@@daydays12 The same era here too, Plymouth born and bred. Live in Stoke too for several years. I loved the hoe, barbican, swimming at Ballards and mount wise.

I lived in Plymouth 1975 1999. I returned for a week this month June 2012. I was disgusted how the city centre is now a trash heap of closed shops, dolite shops and dirty streets. The only saving grace was the people still retained their janner humour.

[@Paul-010]

Yes, I hear that “Cultural Enrichment “ has also spoilt a once beautiful city. Before 1980 were the golden years.

[@daydays12]

@@Paul-010 A lot of city centres have been blighted by on line shopping

[@Paul-010]

@@daydays12 Yes, that’s a certain fact.

[@daydays12]

@@Paul-010 It is sad. A new use for them must be found

[@Harryjw67]

To be fair, Plymouth in the late 90s was grim. Ugly soviet architecture all around Charles cross roundabout and the lido was completely neglected. The city centre needs attention and I believe it’s getting an overhaul but I’d say it’s a lot nicer now than what it was.

[@AdrianTrace]

Very good, but you got Union Street wrong. The modern view is looking west and the old view is looking east.

[@JamesFoxTimeTravelArtist]

Thanks Adrian - I think there was a mix up with the labelling on the photos. Some major changes around the city over the years

[@luisvillafane3210]

Do Central Park Back in Time

[@daydays12]

Very good 🙂Thank you! Why do I like it better pre - war. Except Old Town street! That looked really nice in 2018
It's the trees that do it!
I was a Plymothian many years ago from the age of 1 to the age of 23

Great video! Those flying brick animations hit differently when you know it was Hitler to blame.
