Enjoying this thread! I remember in the late sixties the smell of smoke from thousands of coal fires hanging over the town. If I whiff one know I get quite nostalgic.
I suppose living here and having to post lots of negative comments because of the incompetence of the council means we overlook some of the beauty still to be found in Accrington. Despite the building of the bypass, we still have the unspoiled rugged moorland beauty of the Coppice in easy walking distance for all the residents to enjoy... Oh dear, who`s going to tell him...
