[quote=Atarah;700855]Hi, I have recently been given an explanation as to why these wide "flags" were laid next to ordinary cobbles, in front of the Hargreaves Arms pub on Manchester Road, Accrington.

(by the way - I believe the pub is due to re-open Mon 6th April, 2009).

I am not sure if what I have been told is true, but wondered if anyone would like to have a guess about their "purpose in life".

Its just an extension of the pavement from Bank Terrace.

Retlaw.

ps
did you get my email on Wm. Hindle.
