I know it's been a few years since this thread was started but I have a picture that I took a few months ago when I went inside this church. And oddly the HM Joint Ventures Logo is stuck on doors throughout the church as seen on the doors in these photos...

Which church? Where? How many churches are decorated with Indian restaurant pink flock wallpaper as in your last pic'????

Re: Accrington Conservative Club
 

Lol. Those pictures are of inside the baptist church on cannon street.
And I havnt got a clue whwhat was going through their mind when they chose the wallpaper.
but the church is absolutely enormous and consists of lots of rooms upstairs downstairs and in the basement.
what they were all used for I do not know.
But i do know that the church used to be at one time a lot bigger... that's right, BIGGER!!
Both Voodoo Nightclub Club And Opium Nightclub used to be part of the church.

The church used to be bigger?

Re: Accrington Conservative Club
 

Like I said, voodoo and opium used to be part of the church before they separated them with breeze blocks.

Are you sure about what you are saying Sambo. The nightclubs were part of the old SCHOOL, not the church, as far as I am aware.

Sambo, I should have said the nightclubs were part of Willow Street School

Re: Accrington Conservative Club
 

I believe they were joined at one time (school and the church) but they are blocked up and separated now.

Re: Accrington Conservative Club
 

School and church should forever be separated :)

That would mean children would only grow up with their parents prejudiced views instead of of being exposed to the full on this is the religion you were born into, now let's put the beggars down full on religious beliefs.

My re lessons consisted of teacher running out of class crying and a nutty woman that played guitar and also ran out crying and my parents though not devout are somewhat believers and forced me for a while to goto Sunday school of which I enjoyed only for the sweets bleh

Starting at the Children's library on Willow Street, the first building was the school which became the Berkley and then later turned into Opium, Voodoo etc. That burned down. What condition is that building in now?

Further along Willow Street was Lar de Dars up to Eagle Street. Up Eagle Street was the Arts Club (up the steps). The building on the corner of Cannon Street and Eagle Street was something to do with the Church at one time but not sure if it was accessible from the Church building.
