Never went out in Burnley much, ( I was more Nelson/Brierfield in those days ) don't recall going in the Concorde. Was it on the little alleyway near the Bus station.?

Jean, used to be call Jeffery:D

Was the Concorde called the Inn Place at one time? If so, it's the most frightening pub I've ever been in, and I've been in some rough holes!

Oh no, she was all woman, but from what I was told, she could stand her ground when it booted off on the Long Side.

It was the Concorde in the 80's I'm sure of that then it changed into the Sidewalk 54.
It scared the hell out of me, it was really rough
