Raikes Parade

1920-1930

The image is of a long empty street in Blackpool, with a domed building and church spire at the end. Halfway up the street is a motor vehicle, the houses are three story, mock tudor with bow windows on the ground floor. There appears to be parkland and trees along the left hand side of the image.
