This is no wind up, as you turn left at the Griffins Head pub on Burnley Road, turn back on yourself, down the road that runs parallel with Burnley Road; the last house on the right was won in a competition in the 1960s/ or early 1970s with Kelloggs, it has been known as the Kelloggs House ever since.This is fact,(a good mate of mine used to live there for many year's).As ever, stay happy,
