Re: Best movie/film set in Lancashire

A Kind of Loving was set in Blackburn, Preston and Manchester...it was a gritty northern film.
Mullards Factory on Phillips Road was one of the locations, and the Rotunda in Blackburn Infirmary was used for one of the scenes(ward 11 and 12).....I think the park scenes were set in Heaton Park at Manchester.

The film was very much my era....and I liked Alan Bates.
