In the 1960s the Corn Exchange building was preserved by inserting a mezzanine floor for a public meeting and performance space upstairs, and shops below. This view from a window shows Woolhall Street, probably Bury's shortest, ending at the sharp roofed battleship grey of part of the arc development. Caaroline's dress shop has closed since this photo, having lasted only a few months. The BetFred premises used to be the Job Centre.
