The focal point is a branch of the Bradford and Bingley Building Society, proudly standing on the corner of Blackett Street and Pilgrim Street. Its grand architecture seamlessly blends with the surrounding cityscape, reflecting an era when building societies played a significant role in shaping urban landscapes. As we delve deeper into this snapshot from yesteryear, our attention is drawn to the vibrant scene unfolding before our eyes.
