The pub premises on the right with the beer barrel above the entrance, is seen in photo 156 when it was a chip shop. Beyond the cart with the tarpaulin is the ‘y’ junction with King (Shawbridge) Street.

The cart is standing at what later became known as the Jubilee Building. Robert Jackson’s shop to be seen in image 233 is in the centre of the three storey tenement on the right.
