The Borough of Hyndburn as it is presently constitued has never been called Accrington and District. Before Hyndurn it was Accrington (which was a borough) and several Urban District Councils - Rishton, Great Harwood, Church, Clayton-le-Moors and Oswaldtwistle, and a parish Altham (which was part of Burnley Rural District Council).
