Ok here goes Gayle, Rising Bridge postal address is Accrington, BUT we are in Rossendale the boundary for the borough is just past Hollands pies where the little row of cottages are, the house on its own is still in Rossendale but its just after that. We pay rates etc to Rossendale, our MP is indeed Greg but most of Haslingden is down to where the Woolpack is and tesco. Our telephone numbers are rossendale as well. Anything else i missed?
Oh yes our postcodes are BB5 but when you get to just past the school on rising bridge road and past the roundabout the postcodes change to BB4!!!
