The same place where the Accriungton Pals used to train in 1914,
you get the same background in some of their pictures.

I can remember when I was young my cousin lived on Park Road Walter, there was a piece of land of Countess Street called the Wreck or might have been the Red Wreck, looks like the gun maybe situated in or about that area[/quote]
Sorry John, but you wouldn't get the old mill in the background from that angle, its definitely on Ellisons Tenement, besides I never went to that end of Accrington until I was much older, about 14 when I started to attend Hyndburn Park night school.
