Just dipped in to this thread and thought to have a look in Barrett's 1935 Directory of Blackburn and District to see if there were other builders. Under 'Joiners and Builders', there are 35 names listed! presumably, some would be woodworkers only.
Incidentally, under 'Fried Fish Dealers' are 66 establishments and these just within the Accrington boundaries! How could Accy support 66 chippies??
