How many of the shops do you remember ? These photos take you from the 1950s upto the present, from the Londesborough cinema to the stately Rowntrees (later Debenhams), from Woolworths and HMV to Boots. And many of the smaller shops will have a place in people's hearts. The top of Westborough used to be home to the Pavilion Hotel, you can see a fascinating gallery HERE about that, and what replaced it. All photos copyright The Scarborough News.
