You don't have to actually go to the office for a copy it can be done by post. People from Australia, Canada and New Zealand doing Genealogy, order by post.
The last I heard the fee was £7-50., its all been centralised at Bow Lane, Preston.

Been doing some family research recently and wondered why the registration was shown as Haslingden for Accrington births and deaths. That answers that one then
