fantastic photo’s, gt charlotte st has certainly changed, but i wouldn’t say for the better ,,
I have to agree with John K Mullin because, since that shithole that is the Clayton Square shopping centre was built, Great Charlotte Street has gone right down the pan! For a kick off, Gimbles (which I suspect started in the US) should never have closed and neither should Blacklers for that matter. The only part of town that I’ll consider going near is Bold Street and even THAT has gone down the pan. Why can’t architects and planners leave the city centre alone?
Hi, I do believe this is an excellent site.
I stumbledupon it 😉 I may revisit yet again since i have bookmarked it.
Money and freedom is the greatest way to change, may you be rich and

Very informative, many thanks for keeping everyone up to

All you write about hits a nerve to me, many thanks for challenging your followers.
Spot on with this write-up, I really believe
this website needs a great deal more attention. I’ll probably be back
