Donkey’s years ago when I worked for Uni Relay installing Radio Luxembourg as cable radio in the Accrington district we would take a mid morning break for a brew and in my case straight out of the oven Eccles Cakes for 6d. About an inch thick and some 4 inches in diameter this tasty snack was enough to keep me going until dinnertime.

Today, if you can get one, an Eccles Cake costs 95p and is smaller and never straight out of the oven.

What is the difference between an Eccles Cake and a Chorley Cake?

No smart Alec answers please. I really want to know.
