This week in history, Year 1 compared a map of Darwen Market St in the 1950s with a map of Darwen Market St in 2024. They spotted noticed lots of differences such as the high street used to have several tailors, shoe shops and banks. Whereas now we don’t have any of those and instead we have takeaways, supermarkets, bargain stores and charity shops. They did notice a similarity which was both the high street in 1950 and the high street now have a pharmacy.
