Is there a connection between Dickens, the OCS and Accy? If so what is it?

Has anyone spotted any other pictures in there which are not exactly Accy (excluding Church, Ossy, etc)?

PS...I'm referring to Accrington/Historic Lancashire
There are one or two discrepencies.

There's one photograph taken from the end of Nab Lane, Stanhill, which states it's were the Spinning Jenny was invented.

As well as featuring in the Accrington section, it's also on the Blackburn one.

I was confused about the Old Curiosity Shop too.

Thanks Retlaw, for answering my questions.
