Title: Worthing - Tarring Road (The Broadway) - looking for photos
Post by: Avondale16 on Tuesday 15 May 18 18:51 BST (UK)
Hi - bit of a long shot but I'm wondering if anyone has photos of Tarring Road in Worthing dating back to 1960's/1970's.

My family lived above one of the shops (Gales Outfitters) in those years & it would be great to see a picture of the shops from those days.

There is another site that has historical West Sussex photos but I can't remember it or find it in my Favourites list, try Googling West Sussex historical photos if you can't find anything in the link I posted.

I've had a lot of luck with these over the years.

No luck so far - some close misses though - thank so much for the suggestions
