I was born in Market Weighton in 1955 & can amazingly remember the Central Cinema & the beautiful house attached…though must have been in poor repair even then…with Mrs Bird’s sweet shop next door. My Grandad was Harold Martin who owned the cycle & TV shop further along High Street, living above the shop. Such vivid & heart warming memories of an idyllic childhood growing up in Market Weighton & many of the old buildings now demolished.
