Discounting Accrington's current favourite son, and as I now reside at the other end of the county, I will attempt a few more Lancashire gems.

Morecambe Bay potted shrimps (yuk for me but a lot of people like them hence they sell for a fortune on posh menus)
Morecambe Bay itself (of course)
Forest of Bowland, little visited and possibly best so for the wildlife but not the economy
Lancashire witches
Preston North End, not much glory these days but many famous names have been associated with the club which according to Wikipedia were founding members of the English Football League in 1888 and the first league champions, achieving the English football "Double" in the same season by winning the FA Cup without conceding a goal.

Well Rob that brings your 15 up to 20, will that do? And well done Retlaw for getting a mention.
