"Eastern Bazaar" Official Handbook. Adverts from 1900

Below are three adverts taken from the Hyde Wesleyan Methodist Church

"Eastern Bazaar" Official Handbook.

The Eastern Bazaar was held at The Mechanics Hall  from Thursday Feb 28th through to Saturday March 2nd 1900.
It was a huge event for its day that was extremely popular by all accounts !





Is this who Fairbrother Street (now Grange Road North) was named after ?






Love the modern Cooker shown ;) !

Borough Arcade - Then and Now

Borough Arcade looked to be quite "posh" in 1900 if the drawings are anything to go by !
