My Movie burnley 1988

[@fitzjon4628]

Absolutely Brilliant I Remember the Cat's Whisker'sin the 80's

[@DaveFallows]

I was also seven years old in 1988. Went to Tod. Rd. Primary. I used to love going down town on a Saturday shopping with either my grandma or my granddad. :) Now living in the Dutch countryside near the German border. Thanks for this video, mate. I'll be able to show my little boy where daddy grew up, once he's old enough to understand. :) Burnley was a great place in the 80s and early 90s. Some videos of Towneley or Brunshaw would be immense.

I was a Tod Road for a while, then went onto Towneley High. Burnley has changed much over the years, I remember the market it was thriving at the weekends.

[@justingoodwin8741]

Great video. Just how I remember Burnley center as a little boy in the 80's

[@andyandthe2strokemonster942]

Me too Andy Haslam here born 1984 lived down on Hinton st and went to Tod road then on to Towneley, beautiful as it was back in them days !!!

[@michaelhartley11]

[@leroywinston1570]

[@andio3500]

The Sky is clear and filled with beautiful clouds, the grass is green and looks lovely! The cleaning service has stepped up no doubt!! A Peaceful, more simpler time! Well Enjoyed this...

[@kktomm]

How can you have a "clear sky" that is filled with clouds?

[@humaunbokta2302]

Brought back alot of memories those were thd days. Born, and bred in Burnley I wish I could go back in time.

[@bosstimeagain]

This brings back a lot of memories

[@jamesgedling2447]

Town centre looked way cooler back then with the fountain and funky benches.

[@petersunderland3806]

This looks to be a bit earlier than 1988. Started driving in 87 and I’m sure St James St was part-pedestrianised by then, but my memory isn’t what it was in those days 😂 Love seeing the old place though. I’d totally forgotten about Animal Magic! 😂

[@HumkerT1]

This must have been a Sunday, surely? Look how few cars are on Centenary Way.. Jam packed daily nowadays.

[@humaunbokta2302]

I miss those days this video was defo shot on a Sunday everything closed a day of rest for everyone.

[@hartburn6301]

This is how I remember it as a kid, 7 yrs old in 88, If you have any more please share, cheerz

[@meee5555]

I was 7 then too!

[@alexbury2622]

I was born into the wrong generation it looks so much better then

[@johnfrancis5673]

Superb Burnley movie.

[@roryscottish8053]

1988 was a good year

[@andysalmon1004]

Wow, brings back memories, I was 18/19 in 88, I think it go pedestrianised in 90, looks better than it does now, I moved to whalley years ago, went down Burnley the other week with my teenage son...a bit shocking really, I'm afraid to say.

[@sarahardman5505]

It's weird seeing cars going down a street that's pedestrian now. They should have kept that foundation, looks way better than the crap that's there now.

[@petereastwood3024]

Are you sure this was 1988. A few things seem wrong. The top end of St. James’s street was pedestrianised in 88 and there are no sign of the works being carried out. Also that was the year that the Boot became Yates Wine lodge. Also the scaffolding on the mechanics was not their in 88 as it was completed in 87 a year after it was opened by the queen. Look at the amounts of litter you don’t see that amount today.

[@abrin5508]

I remember all of that.

[@joe-vl3nd]

Look how clean it was no homeless..Bliss 👍🇬🇧

[@theriddlers4630]

[@jamesheyworth3566]

I was hoping to see the Eastenders double decker buses which were about at the time ,anyone remember them Dot Cotten , Dirty Den and the like? But they were painted in the Burnley and Pendle colours.

[@jamesheyworth3566]

Burnleyguy I do miss my home town. I am very proud of how Burnley fc are doing( I followed them when they needed me in 86-87-88 ...I went to all the games, home and away.....I was young with money.....and the buzz could not be beat.) but now when I look how Burnley , Colne and Nelson are I am , shamefully , glad I'm down south.........but I may come back......reasons. If you answer I may talk more.

[@Varanization]

Yeah, I remember those buses. They were tiny! Well, for double deckers. Wonder what happened to them?

[@BartolBeCool]
