According to my dad the best ice cream by far in Accrington, was "Holgate's"....Richard Holgate used to sell his ice cream from a horse and cart. The horse was stabled just off blackburn road in Accrington at the "labour club" which was was somwhere near the miners club near the old grammar school..I used to play there when I was a kid and seem to remember the labour club. The ice cream was made at home ...No 40 Frederick St, Accrington and production was halted due to the second world war. If anyone would like any more information on this I can put you in touch with my father
