This view of Billingham Town Centre is two or three years earlier than the one on Ann’s blog. It was taken in 1965 or 1966 when the outdoor events of the Folklore Festival where held at this location and could be watched for free. The West Precinct is still under construction in the background and at the top of the helical pram ramp is the shop which started this round of nostalgia bearing the name “Toys – Prams – Do It Yourself”
