local accents

It used to be when I was growing up you could tell a persons origins from their accent , I grew up in Great Harwood (part of Greater Hyndburn) and it was easy to tell the difference from someone who originated from say Blackburn , Burnley or Accrington , (not so easy for someone from outside the local area to notice but there was a difference and it was noted by the locals) I'm wondering if its the same today. Does Accrington still have it own "accent" ?
