I work in the Accrington Pals Primary Care Health Centre. Quite a few members of staff, as well as myself, have reported seeing/feeling a 'presence' in various parts of the building.

I know that Broughtons the plumbers merchants was sited in an old mill here. I have also heard that there was a fire in the mill with a few fatalities.

I would be grateful if anyone could shed some light on this fire. It would be really intriguing if I could get a plan of the mill and overlay it with a plan of the Pals building, especially if the mill plan showed where the fatalities occurred.
