Then and now: The changing face of Ipswich town centre

Ipswich Cornhill, Carr Street and Upper Orwell Street - we launch our exciting interactive pictures as part of our nostalgia series.
It is amazing to see how much Ipswich town centre has changed over the past 90 years.
We love delving into our archives and seeing old pictures of our town, and hearing of the memories they evoke among our readers.
Do you remember when traffic could travel through Ipswich Cornhill, or when Woolworths was among the largest stores on our high street?
Following on with the success of our Ipswich Remembers Facebook page, we have launched an interactive series that allows us to merge old and new photographs taken in the same location.
This week we are focusing on Cornhill, Carr Street and Upper Orwell Street, and we will look at other areas in the coming weeks.
Simply move the slider from left to right to see how different the street scene looks now.
