  Oswaldtwistle Special

 

 

Below are some pictures of Oswaldtwistle past and present. It is interesting to see how the unmistakable thoroughfare that is Union Road has played host to a number of changes over the past century or so. If any of our readers have similar pictures in their private collections and would like to share them with us here, please contact us at editorial@acornnews.co.uk and we will feature the best ones in the next few months.

The Old Oswaldtwistle Town Hall now the Civic Arts Centre

 

Tinker Brook in days gone by and today. Note the Tinker and Budget Pub on the right




The same part of Union Road but 100 years apart. Trams have given way to Cars and Traffic Lights


Although the angle is slightly different the pictures show the Castle Pub before and after demolition.

This public house is just below the Palladium Cinema which is also derelict these days.
