The borough of Hyndburn consists of Accrington (which was a borough - before the amalgamation), Altham (which is still a parish, but part of Hyndburn), Church, Clayton-le-Moors, Great Harwood, Oswaldtwistle and Rishton (which were all Urban Districts before the almalgamation).

(Altham was part of Burnley Rural District Council, before it became part of Hyndburn).

As for 'spot On' not allowing you to go to Gt Harwood, with a Hyndburn ticket - where you going from Ossy via Blackburn or via Accrington. If you were travelling via Blackburn, it might be because the bus actulay took you outside the borough.
