The eagerly anticipated demolition of the old Wilko’s store on Talbot Road in Blackpool has been continuing as September becomes October with the demolition teams still concentrating on the front of the building around where the entrance used to be. In this latest pictorial update Tony Armitage provides the below photos from 1st October 2020.
