Accrington House
Hard to believe this fine building was once in Accrington, eh?
So, anyone in the area of Oswald Street, Bold Street, Mansion Street etc., ... THIS IS WHAT YOU ARE BUILT ON!!!!
The house, built in 1800, was one of the largest houses in the area. It was demolished in 1889 (shame!) to make way for houses for the growing population - many factories of course springing up in the area.
Accrington House stood diagonally across the top of Oswald Street and Clarendon Street
I wonder if anyone in this area has any ghosties?
