Seeing as you now admit defeat.
It was called Brocklehurst, near to Spire Farm.
Some years ago some one applied for planning permission to rebuild. There was quite a bit in the paper at the time.
The name Brockholehurste is mentioned in documents dating back the 1463, so its a really old part of Accrington.
