New Puzzle for Katex.

Ready for your next quest.
Here it is, where is it.
I've also posted another picture of Christ Church, same year 1848, and because of the draughtsmanship, I'm presuming its the same artist.

I wonder if that spotted scarf covering that woman's face completely is some subliminal message ;)

It looks like some sort of high collar on the original.

Now come on Retlaw, this is all make believe. That is a sketch done by one of the art students of the Accrington Grammar School in the 1930's!!!!!!!!

If you go left off Abbey St & travelling North, its Spring Gardens, Black Abbey St, Oak St, Warner St, Little Blackburn Rd, Queen St, Tasker St, Infant St & Peel St. If your going South its Avenue Parade, Stanley St, Barnes St, Plantation St, (Birtwistle St) & Sandy Lane.

You'l have to get your broom stick out and do a flyover. :theband:

Whats Make believe, Those buidings actually existed. They were there in the 1930s, I've seen them often. One of them is still standing although tarted up, a lad I went school with called Croasdale lived in the first building, the one thats still standing.
