Great memories, thank you for posting. When I was in kid in the '70s and '80s they were just building the Golden Square, it's funny seeing the Barley Mow in a street rather than in the corner of a shopping centre. We used to go to the old baths and to the Wimpy when I was young and to the town centre pubs when I was a teenager. I remember the old ABC with the picture house and a bingo hall, before it became Mr Smiths. I left in 1991, I think, when I was 19. My parents still live in Sankey and I've driven through the town centre recently, at least the parts where you can still drive; it all looks very different!
Cut-Price Carey - The Money Saver shop near the market at 6:25 - this was run by Ron Carey - Ron and my dad were great friends - I can remember Ron visiting our house in Elliott Avenue. Ron and my dad used to buy stock from the Jewish wholesalers in Manchester.
Wow remember most of the town looking like that, but I think the market had moved by the time I can think, as I can't remember visiting it at the old place.
I visited Warrington in 1999ish and had such a good time. As a Canadian everyone welcomed me as "that American bloke". It's OK, I understand. I remember seeing a monument to an IRA bombing. Humans will be humans...

Fantastic, thanks.
Thanks for the happy memories. The decline of the town is shocking, compared with how it used to look.

We used to snigger about that when we were kids too! I remember when it was derelict in the early '80s and we'd mess about in there.

Everyone did.
Did you ever slide down the spiral corn shoot in the middle of the building?
@@ramalama9650 No it was gone, even the first few floors had had the boards ripped out by then. It was all a pit perilous!
@@ShedTV We must have been in there quite a few years before you. It was all untouched when we used to go.
