Re: Cherry Clough?

Cherry Clough only appeared in 2 Census records for 1861 and 1871 and I have checked the enumerators lists for 1851 and 1881 but it does not appear in those.

You need to find a large scale map of the area as near to those dates as you can and then follow the enumerators walk to see if you can find any buildings on the map which are not listed by name.

Whilst doing my own research on a small village in Haslingden we used that method and then went to find any ruins in the area which may have been occupied but which were not named on any maps.

If you go down into Accrington Library and see John Simpson in the Local Studies Department he may have maps which could help.
