    Layton Institute and the Queens takes me right back. The lovely smell from the biscuit factory. They were the days. Thanks for another great video.

    At 16:57 That’s Annessley Avenue ..my Grandparents moved there to No 77 in 1987 I think 🤔 and I often stayed there and loved the smell of the biscuit factory nearby x x x We could see the top of Blackpool Tower from the back bedroom and from the end of the back garden..which backs onto the cemetery. They’re no longer with us now, but had wonderful memories there, thanks for going this far up 🌈✝️🕊️😇😘🥰😍 God bless you, it feels homely to me x x x They were from Whitworth in Rochdale originally x

    Layton is a great little place, somewhat overlooked as an area of Blackpool. The library is indeed still open. The toilets I'm led to believe used to be used as a shelter / tram stop when the tram ran up Talbot road and finished in Layton. We have the Christmas light switch on on the 29th, if only we could get a superstar RUclipsr to document the occasion 🤔

    Those houses with the triangle roofs and balconeys are great they look nordic style or kind of swiss its quite a decent area very quiet no wizzing cars no beer monsters 😂😂but its a shame the rovers return isnt on the corner of the street it did look like coronation street on the last road you went down and i think the queens pub would probably do a good carvery on a sunday it looked quite nice id give it a shout and try it youd most probably get a traditional lancashire beer in there on tap loved todays video shame its raining were in for snow tomorrow blackpool is gonna look fantastic if it does snow ❤️👍😊✋

    People don't realize Steve that Victorian Cemeteries are history books waiting to be opened,
    In Bristol we have Arnos Vale commissioned in 1837 first burial 1839 nearly lost a lot of it to greed but was saved and is now run under a trust, (built on a slope just along from Vale Street, driving test nightmare for hill starts) A lot of Grade2 structures and a list of famous people as long as your arm and is still in use,
    If you go for a wander on a sunny day late spring early summer when the grass is high and full of wild flowers find a spot sit and relax and all you can hear is the buzzing of the bee's and the soft flap of butterfly wings in the breeze because it's dead quite.
    The word famous in a cemetery is totally different than anywhere else, you have to open that book and look, ok internet but sometimes you can only find it in a local an archive. Graveyards are for the living not just the dead but give them respect.

    Hi Stephen, who was the Bright Spark that decided to place those benches on the island in the middle of the road, on the main shopping area in Layton ?
    God forbid if a car ran off the road for whatever reason and hit one of them whilst people are sat there, with no barriers to protect anybody.
    Even though it might be 20mph with speed bumps, the cars you filmed looked like they were travelling at a good pace.
    It might never happen, but at least they have several cemeteries there with vacant plots to fill im sure ?
    Health and Safety forgotten there for once !
