I've only heard it from the gypsies, from when I used to work at the veg shop Fruitcakes (that isnt open anymore), and they used to come in every now and again at the one down near the town hall for their shopping. I used to know a few of the settled travellers when I lived in Accrington and they used to always refer to it as 'ossy village'. Have there ever been welcome signs before perhaps that referred to it as a village?
