Care Home: Rough Lee House

Just been reading this thread again, that link to Care Home; Rough Lee House. its at the top of Rough Lee Rd, Acc, and has a BB5 post code, local authority Blackburn with Darwen. I thought Blackburn was BB5 as well so where is BB2.

Still doen't mek sense, every street in a mile radius of Rough Lee Hospice has a BB5 post code, so how can that small plot of land at the top of Rough Lee Rd, Accrington, have a BB2 postcode

Maybe they want their mail directed to an office in Blackburn.

It's obviously a mistake. BB2 5DG is Tetbury Close Blackburn.

Correct code for Rough Lee House/Home according to Royal Mail is BB5 2LN

Rough Lee House care home, Rough Lee Road, Accrington, Lancashire BB5 2LN

My birthday is March 14th :):cake:

My eldest son was born in Roughlee in 1971 and his brother was born at Bramley Meade 1 year and 1 day later :dummy2:

Just found this thread. I was born at Roughlee too. I wonder if 'Roughlee' who started the thread ever got her picture of 32 Burnley Lane,Huncoat. I knew the lady next door at 30.She lived there all her life so would be there when 'Roughlee' lived at 32.

Re: Roughlee Nursing Home Accrington

Just seen this thread.

I was born there in 1950. (Dad told the story that I very nearly wasn't, because he couldn't get the car started.)

Mum said that when she got there, the matron insisted she have a bath, and I was almost born while she was in the bath.
