mickjj Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 While doing my trip down memory lane this week was drawn to the old Robert Brothers store. In the window they have a display of photos on the history of the Moor. They range from the 1800's to present day. Included are shots of "Pauldens" and "Robert Brothers" but alas no "Redgates". If you get the chance they are well worth seeing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike142sl Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 I would be interested but as a clue can you tell us what the old Robert Brothers Store is called now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuart0742 Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 I would be interested but as a clue can you tell us what the old Robert Brothers Store is called now? Most of it is now empty (I think), it is opposite BHS on the corner of what I believe is Rockingham Gate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickjj Posted October 1, 2008 Author Share Posted October 1, 2008 Just below Debanhams on the same side. As said above it is all closed down. easy to find though some of the pics are around 3ft x 2ft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardB Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 How long before those photographs disappear, never to be seen again. Is there any notification as to who is putting on the exhibition ? Sounds like someone we ought to be getting in touch with ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike142sl Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 I can remember my Dad driving us all up The Moor when they turned the lights on a Christmas. It was a fantastic sight looking all the way up from the London Rd end. They don't make em like they used to! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveHB Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 It was a bit awkward getting the shots due to reflections on the window from passers by, not to mention one or two spectators So please ignore any ghosts on the photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
