May Day Green: Dunn & Wymans: 1960s
These shop frontages (the buildings cleared in 1969) 'hide' 19th-century sturdy stone buildings. The Market Inn is just I view to the left but the street now becomes part of Pontefract Road. The hat-makers Dunn & Co were here from 1926 and Wymans (Ladies) Fashion functioned from 1958. The widow displays are very well presented. The pram and the signages helps to give the image a 1950s/60s feel. See E.G.Tasker's 'Barnsley Streets' vol 4, p.60.
