Name the stream

Now then, I've just been chatting with mtheads dad about local places. He asked if I knew the name of the stream that roughly seperates Ossy from Accrington until it reaches Church.

It roughly runs from Jacob's Lodge, under the Bridge on High Street, down Pendleton Avenue, at the back of St Marys school then Moscow Mill street. It eventually joins the River Hyndburn, we think.

Let's see who get's the right answer first

No it's not Tinker Brook Doug. I said that

Apparently you can only find it's name on really old maps.

I'm quite impressed that you don't know this. I did say "if anyone will know the answer it will be Dougie"

I will tell you in a couple of days if no-one gets it correct.
