According to the 1901 Census my husband's great-grandfather, Francis Slater, lived at 362 Union Road, Oswaldtwistle, and was a shopkeeper working from home (Coffee House) as a Potato and Fish Cooker. Recently checking this address we find it is now Moorend Chippy. Can anyone please tell us if these premises have been a Chip Shop ever since great-granddad's time? Amazing, if so! (In 1901 next door (364) was a Grocer's Shop - Sandy Rawcliffe).
