I loved listening to my dad and Hilda May Knowles(Nee Whittaker) who lived in Burnley Lane talking about the old Huncoat characters. I used to be in stitches. Folk like 'Owd Up a Tree' and ' Owd Oh Mi Eye'. I wish I had recorded them. I do have 2 cd of my dad which the Sound Archives in Clitheroe castle recorded of him talking about his childhood in the village. He talks of all the shops there were and even a bank.
