Accrington history question.

You WERE listening to your history teacher! Yep, we have the amazing ACCRINGTON HOUSE, home of the Peel family. Part of Avenue Parade was the driveway, and yep, they did construct a road to get them to St James Church. It was around the Clarendon St/Oswald St area of town. And yes, those street names, over Burnley Road area, ARE named after Peel children.

(Think this discussion has previously been covered on the History and Heritage section)
