Oldest part of Accrington.

The oldest residential buildings in Accrington are the High Riley Cottages. The next oldest is Higher Hey Farm and its Cottages. Spire Farm could rate as one of the oldest sites in Acc, but it has been rebuilt several times in the past. It has not always been known as Spire Farm the stone of that Spire used to be a tower behind High Riley Cottages, it was taken down and reused to enlarge the farm, it was them rerated in 1835./
