The top of Chorley Old Road is deserted in this pre-war photo of Bolton.

Chorley Old Road, Bolton, 1938 (Picture: Newsquest)

Taken in 1938 it shows the tram from Bolton to Montserrat about to negotiate a sharp bend.

The picture was taken from the junction with Whitecroft Road.

Do any Looking Back readers remember the seats under the street light at the junction?
