I grew up in Whitehaven in the 1980s/90s, so it's fascinating to see how different the town I remember was from just 10/20 years prior. Though I'd tried to forget how those horrible silos in the harbour dominated the landscape...

Amazing that so much looks exactly the same.

[@AmandaMGarraway]

Fascinating!

My great-auntie said to him...on the day he opened the Co-Op..." I know thou an' I'll tell 'ee some-ut"..
"I'd rather have the upstairs than downstairs lad"...lol as she'd seen him in the TV series Upstairs and Downstairs..
