Terylene, discovered at Broad Oak Printworks during the Second World War
Khaki colour - discovered by Gatty (the park along Hyndburn Road being named after him)
Sorry, but Alice Liddle did NOT live at Oak Hill Mansion, it was the man who eventually became her husband i.e. Reginald Hargreaves
Mystic Meg was indeed BORN just off Blackburn Road, but her family only lived there a couple of years
