poohbear 1,360 Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 Just spotted this...I wonder what the Marble Skating Rink just off Talbot Street catered for? And just down the road the Alexandra skating rink...wonder if this is roller skates,it must have been popular.Interesting to note the Guildhall and police station site was a cattle market.

poohbear 1,360 Posted March 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 I didn't realise roller skating was so popular long ago...I've never heard it mentioned in the umpteen Victorian dramas that have appeared on the box. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
