Other Clubs
 

I am reading about the Con Club, which seems to be in a sorry state. What about the oppositions other club and hall?.
I am talking about another fine building, The Liberal Club which was also the Arts club on Willow Street, and the Labour Hall on Blackburn Rd, facing Willows Lane, where Joe Mortimer had his dancing school, and then Bullough's took it over when they closed their club on the corner of Cannon and Chuch Street. It was Bullough's when we left Accy in 1975.
Are they still standing, and if so , what are they today.

Re: Other Clubs
 

I don't go through every post before I reply, The Liberal club was a nightclub for a while Think it was called La De Das or somat like that, only went in a couple of times, there was also a banqueting hall as well, went to a pool presentation night there in the early 80s

Re: Other Clubs
 

I was thinking the liberal club came around into Eagle St, and next to that was where my next door neighbour worked, AccringtonCorporation Treasurers Department. From memory there was also a entrance to the liberal club on Willow St
