Take a trip back in time to the good old days...
And those good old days, in this case, are the late ‘90s in Chorley.
Here we’ve put together a collection of our best retro archive pictures of the town from 1995 to 1999, so take a look and see if you can spot any familiar sights or faces.
The chance to escape to another world is being offered by a Chorley drama group. The pantomime Jack and the Beanstalk opens at St George's Church Hall in Halliwell Street , and is being staged by members of St George's Dramatic and Musical Society, with ages ranging from six to 60Photo: RETRO
Green Cross Code man David Prowse who was Darth Vader in the Star Wars Trilogy is pictured with Kenny Baker, who played the robot R2D2 in the films and a Storm Trooper at Botany Bay, Chorley in November 1999Photo: RETRO
