Re: Clarks of Broad Oak Farm
I was never allowed any further than the factory bottoms. We lived on Higher Antley Street in the 60's and my Dad told us that Icky the Bare Bummed Fire Bobby lived up there and he would eat us. Of course I knew he was telling porkies, he didn't want my sister and me mixing with the pop swigging, Spanish munching yobs, who frequented the area.
I don't have a paper OS map of the area, the online ones put those co-ordinates by the side of Kings Highway, above Winfields so that is confusing. I will wait until I next visit Accrington and have a scout round.
Thanks for the information.
