- GUDC, Fire Station, The Woolpack & Red Hall. Nice shot from the early 1960s of Gainsborough's Lord Street. The fine Georgian building was the old Gainsborough Urban District Council Building - they moved out into the new Guildhall in April, 1966. Also on this row is the old fire station, and in the middle distance can be seen the entry to Caskgate Street with the Woolpack Inn on the corner
