We have discussed this subject before, there were never any tunnels, relating to the so called Black Abbey, and the myth about them going to Whalley Abbey, is just that a myth, Whalley Abbey wasn't founded till after the monks of Kirkstall had left Accrington. 10 feet down under most of Accrington in that area is solid rock, how are going to get through that, gunpowder was unknown to them days.
I posted two of the earliest documents relating to the aquisition of Accrington by those monks on another thread.
