However..

Arndale..one bad driver can cause a logjam, use at your peril
Back of the old tyre place...difficult to navigate, one badly parked car causes problems for everyone, dead end at the other side, use at your peril
King Street..have to circumnavigate the planet to get to it unless approached from Oswaldtwistle, fill up before using, no through flow
Black Abbey St/Oak St..no traffic flow and too 'bitty', go into one bay, find it full, 3 point turn or reverse onto main road, rinse and repeat at the next entrance
Morrisons...NCP..nuff said
Eastgate..similar to King St unless approaching from Huncoat

With the exception of the Arndale and Morrisons you cannot drive in circles until you find a space. Street parking times of 30mins-2hrs does not encourage browsing, a coffee, pie and chips in a cafe...

'Free' does not mean desirable or quality
