Think it used to be on the small parade where Rose &Crown is now.If I remember rightly it was actually where the Paint Shop is at the side of the steps.My mates mother worked there in the 60's and we used to get the plain black jeans that the Rockers wore at the time.

Think these jeans were known as drain pipes.
