Re: Greatest Lancastrian?
Gordon Burns was born in N.Ireland. And he is a proud Ulsterman. So why he is on the list I do not know.
Gerrard Winstanley? I still don't know what he did for Lancashire. Others that are missing:- Dame Mary Peters Anne Robinson Phyllis Bone Jon Culshaw Red Rum (honourary) |

Re: Greatest Lancastrian?
 After 400 votes, Fred Dibnah has taken a commanding lead in the Greatest Lancastrian poll. http://www.forgottenlancashire.co.uk...ncastrians.php ToffeeGuy's right - there are some obvious names missing, and some errors. Looks like a Yorkshire company is behind the errors... |

Re: Greatest Lancastrian?
James Hargreaves - probably the grandad of the industrial revolution, that gave the world the British Empire!
