My cousin from Morecambe was married to a Police man in the 60's and he was posted to Oswaldtwistle, the police house he was allocated was one of a few at the very bottom left or Thwaites road. They had never heard of Oswaldtwistle and couldn't wait to get away. When they finally settled he was posted to Kirkby, the first night there his garden gate came through his front window. he begged to come back to Oswaldtwistle.

His name was Powson.
My cousin became ex Mrs Powson a few years later.
