Darwen St - c1904

A lovely 108 year old view of Darwen St, looking in the direction of King William St.
Those working chaps on the right hand pavement, had earlier been into the Prince of Wales pub on the corner of Higher Church St and also had a few beers in the Legs O Man and The County, which they've just left. They were heading for the Postal Order, but as you can see, taking their time, as it hadn't yet been built and wouldn't become a pub for another 3/4 of a century, so there was no push.
