You could get just about anything you wanted in Park Lane Market in its Sunderland heyday.
But we wonder how many of these shops and stalls you can still name from the popular little shopping hub’s past.
Back in its heyday, bargain hunters used to love a look round the likes of Thoburns, Herrons, Blue Moon Discount and Pips Ladies Fashions.
Perhaps B&S Cooney or Anne Prinelle was more your thing, or maybe Habycraft or Zig Zags.
We have loads of names that you might recognise if you loved to shop in Park Lane in the late 1980s.
