Nolans' Commercial Hotel
 

This is shown on a postcard advertised on eBay of a church procession. Anyone know where it was?

I would have had a look, but the link takes me to the home page of E-Bay.

Re: Nolans' Commercial Hotel
 

Go into eBay and search for Accrington Collectables.

Re: Nolans' Commercial Hotel
 

The Hotel is at the end of Willow Street and the Hotel in the background is the one on Blackburn Road.

If you look on the attached 1911 Census list it states 36 Willow Street a temperance Hotel run by Mrs Nolan.

That was too much trouble....well, for me anyway.

I would have thought that you could have posted a link to the correct page and then I wouldn't have to search for something that you wanted an answer to.

Re: Nolans' Commercial Hotel
 

No Margaret Kendalls is on Blackburn Road corner of Fox Street where you can go up to the back entrance to the station. Was quite derelict but hasn't it been done up?

Re: Nolans' Commercial Hotel
 

Thanks Susie for the link

Re: Nolans' Commercial Hotel
 

Ah, yes...it all becomes clear to me now........I can see what would be the Railway pub in the background of the picture.

Re: Nolans' Commercial Hotel

Re: Nolans' Commercial Hotel

Nolans' Commercial Hotel
 

Not too sure on this one, but there was certainly some form of "eating house" owned by Nolans, at the bottom of Church Street, which was described as an eating house/restaurant (this was just lower down than where Moffitts was at the lower end).
