I think the name and the date don't coincide. Find ( in the library) an old ( 1900?) directory of the whole of Lancashire and look the name up to give you the location.Remember to look at both beerhouses and hotel/inns, as these had different sorts of licences. I don't think you will find the name in a local directory. It isn't in my 1951 one. If you can come up with the name of the book, it will help. There weren't many local books published in the 1960s.
