Norton High Street c1950s

t15003A photograph showing Norton High Street probably in the mid 1950s and judging by the length of the shadows I think it may be mid Summer…

The parade of shops lead off to the right and finish at The Yorkshire Penny Bank on the corner of Leven Road, I remember the bank having its name etched into all of its windows when I was working in Norton in the early 1960s, signage was much more restrained in those days.
