Join us on a nostalgic shopping trip of Lancaster and remember some of the staff who have worked there over the years.
Many of the shops we’ve featured are long gone including favourites like Chirnsides, Gorrills and Smalley’s...but some still remain including of course Marks & Spencer.
We found it fascinating looking at how the city’s shopping streets have changed over the centuries. We hope you do too.
