. But ... there seems to be no mention of our Accrington connection. And yet it is documented that the two daughers of Mr Steiner - Emma and Lina (Emma Street and Lina Street) were exceptionally friendly with the King. (Steiner owned the turkey red dye works at Church, and lived in Hyndburn House, now the site of Hyndburn Park School and surrounding streets) - !

Buggar Edward VII and the myths, rumours and legends of his conquests..Why is Hyndburn Park School so called? Unlike Peel Park school - built roughly the same time and presumably named after Peel Park - there is no 'Hyndburn Park'. Yeah, there is Gatty Park and there is Milnshaw Park....but no Hyndburn Park. So why the name?
Suggestions on a post card, please....
