The Local Studies section in the library will have some infomation - I seem to recall that many of the parishioners were involved in the actual building of the church.

Re: st josephs catholic church accrington
There is an article on the Haslingden Old and New web site which shows an old bank (Martins) on the corner of Regent Street and Blackburn Road being demolished and the stone being used to build St Joseph's church. Here's a link to the article Haslingden Old and New...: Where did Haslingden folk save their brass?
