Answer January 2023

The clue photo (on the left above or first image) is of old buildings along Back Row c1978. The view is looking NE from near its junction with Market Street, with the North Eastern Hotel and the entrance to the Forum Cinema on the left. In the distance is the Albert and Edward Club building on Hallstile Bank.

The second photo taken in 1981 shows the North Eastern Hotel was then the North Eastern Mews Shopping Centre.

The third photo shows the the Pudding Mews apartment complex following the redevelopment of the site in 1989.

Other images are available in the Back Row Gallery.
