We are continuing our look back at Mansfield' s town centre with this gallery of Leeming Street pictures from our archives.
From Leckenbys and the original Stag & Pheasant, the Horse & Jockey to the very lovely Handley Arcade, check out the shops and pubs that are no longer with us, and those which have stood the test of time.
Although many of the buildings remain, some occupants today are a far cry from their previous traders.
Have a look through and see which ones bring back great memories, or if you are one of the faces of the many shoppers frequenting the area.

22. ABC Cinema
The ABC cinema on Leeming Street was originally called the Grand Theatre in 1905 and featured bands, choirs and even opera. It was reopened as the Grand Super Cinema in 1929, changing to the ABC in 1963. Photo: JPIMedia
