I remember Mr Birtles and son Malcolm at Ellison Fold Garage behind The Forts Arms. I lived in Grange Street at the time and Daniel Street and Moor Street and lots of other side streets were cobbled in those days.
The other name for the cobble stones is "sets" and they are using some now to place around the renovated Peel memorial on the top of the Coppice in Accy. It was nice to see so many people at the commemorative ceremony on 26th September. Maybe the pathwork renovation there will encourage more people (other than us regular dog-walkers) to enjoy the varied countryside of the Coppice.
