More about this scene
This is the main shopping parade in the town. M & S proudly displayed their new frontage from 1964. At the end of the street were the swimming baths, which opened in May 1911. By 1901, the Castleford bottling industry was producing 16 million items per year; however, glass production ceased here in 1983. The world-famous sculptor Henry Moore was born in Castleford in 1898.
