Here are 12 old photos overlooking brilliant Burnley to take you back in time, including Keirby Hotel and the old Burnley Bus Station

These 12 fascinating old photos document many of the changes that have occurred in the borough as far back as the 1920s.

They depict general views of the town’s streets, transport systems and landmark buildings like the Keirby Hotel and Turf Moor.

Take a look at the photo gallery below, courtesy of Lancashire County Council, which are part of Keeping East Lancashire in the Picture. Volunteers are required for this two-year project, which will bring together thousands of people of different ages and backgrounds to make the amazing collections of historic photographs in their libraries more accessible, inclusive and sustainable.

The council is calling for 75 digitisation and research volunteers across four project hubs based in libraries in Burnley, Nelson, Colne and Accrington.
