Re: Shoulder of Mutton, 6 Cross Edge, Green Haworth

Accrington Library holds much that will interest you: look at Barretts Directoriesof Blackburn & District for names of licensees. Each february in the Observer, there were reports from the Brewster Sessions. Green Haworth at this point was probably in the Accrington Police area, but if not, look into the Church reports.
Thwaites' brewery will have the pub's records. They aren't all that great at replying in detail.
Census records are available on-line ( free from the library's computers) up to 1911.

There is a PC Sholliker (?)at Accrington Police Station who is helpful in looking at police files.
