Trawling through Hyndburn's website for 5 minutes I suspect the answer to your first question, DAVO, is no. Hope I'm wrong.
There doesn't seem to be any 'tourist' information.
The 'economic development' team isn't even in Accy, but at Shadsworth.
It seems that any promotion as regards inward investment is done on behalf of groups of councils (e.g. Pennine Lancashire) or through the County Council. I guess, therefore, if such joint bodies were plugging little Stanley they'd also have to plug Burnley, Rovers, and Preston NE.
Mind, you plugging the 'birthplace' of professional football wouldn't be a bad extra selling point to some foreign investors.
