Brought a tear to my eye when I watched this video. Such a shame that Wellington is now a shadow of what it used to be. Thanks Dennis for uploading this video. Nice music too.
This was my home town as a boy and teenager. Left in 1971. Not the same now. My father worked at the Chad Valley for over 50 year. I notice the old Majestic dance hall. My dad said it was called the Palais Glide in the 1930's and he used to dance there. Can anyone rember it. I used to dance at Terry Heaths Town House. We saw some brill live acts including Geno Washington and other Soul acts. Wonderful days😊
The town centre has just killed the market and all surrounding shops, really a shame to see such a historic area be annihilated by a giant waste of money which shouldn’t have been built
What a trip down memory lane l regonised the Midland Red conductres standing in the door of the bus, l use to dread getting on the bus when she was on coming home from school she was a right battle axe she lol😂. Wellington looked far much nicer in the past than it is today.

Beautiful pictures I know the name Maiden was very popular in Shropshire,probably still is .
Good memories - I lived in Holyhead Road as a kid from 1953 to 1956 and attended Barn Farm School.
Thanks for the memories....I used to live in The Mount boy's home (1 Heygate road) in the early 1970's

Can't help thinking the progress of Wellington spoiled it for me.
