Hi all,

Dyke Nook, Whalley Rd., Accrington was owned by my family in the late 19th century.
My Barnes owned the estate in the 1870's and 1880's.  Is this the same place as you're all talking about.

I had been told it had been a children's home until recently closed down.

Any help or pictures would be great as I have nothing except written material and I don't live in England.

Thanks.
