I'll probably confuse things more but here goes.

Blackburn is a unitary authority so technically is not part of Lancashire i.e. it is not managed by Lancashire County Council. So Lancashire County Council has put up signs at its boundary, not the age-old traditional boundary that we all think of as Lancashire.

Hyndburn covers - Accrington, Oswaldtwistle, Rishton, Great Harwood, Clayton, Baxenden, Belthorn, Huncoat, Altham, Knuzden (well the big housing estate just this side of Wynsors) and a few other small parishes. Parliamentary it also includes Haslingden!
