No. Lang Bridge first started on Paradise St before moving to Exchange St, on of his relatives had J.W. Bridges Ironmongers, and tool merchants on the West corner of Church St and Blackburn Rd.
I served my apprenticeship at Lang Bridge's Engineering works.
Met lot of World War One and WW2 soldiers there, and more when I moved to Bulloughs in the 1950's.
