Similar to the guy who keeps refering to Rishton as a "village" ... Stanhill is maybe a village , Tottleworth is maybe a village , Huncoat/Altham whichever has a Parish District Coucil is a village ... get my drift, maybe even Knuzden qualifies as a village , but Rishton ? thought the old designation of UDC qualified an urban area as a "mini metropolitan area" ie a town,
just my opinion , feel free to delete if my above comments offend the moderators sense of fairplay or disscusion.
Thanks

I'm defending no one, but Neil posted there was a difference in the people in the two towns.
He didn't say what the difference was.
I'd say the demographics of both places, being only a few miles apart, were exactly the same. It's just that there are more folks in Blackburn, so it can support more/larger stores.
As an area we do have relatively low average, when it comes to disposable income.
It's doubtful we're ever going to see luxury brand stores line Broadway, instead of the budget stores we do have.
Being pure white trash himself, I didn't take Neil's post as a call to start a local eugenics programme.
