There were only a few bombs dropped on Burnley in WW2. I posted all the information I was able to glean on my page: http://www.jp29.org/2ar.htm

BTW, there were a couple of bombs dropped on the Crown Point RAF decoy site on the moors just to the south of Burnley -- I believe in 1941 -- but the incidents were not reported in the Press due to security concerns.
