I grew up in Accrington in the late 1950s and 1960s quite close to where Stanley play their home games now. I can still remember quite a lot of things about that time - so it seems to me. I'll pick out a few: the old NORI brickworks, primary school near Sandy Lane, hearing on the radio or tv The Beatles for the first time (I still love The Beatles even now). The hospital also is nearby where I was in for a few days.
Enfield cricket club... drinking warm orange juice with a straw out of a bottle in summer days at said Enfield cricket club on Dill Hall Lane. Aye.
