List of towns in Hyndburn?
Hello all, I'm trying to put together a list of all towns and areas that are within the borough of Hyndburn so that I can improve a search facility on a website.
I was wondering if someone can either point me towards one or write down a list of what they know. So far I only have: Hyndburn Accrington Great Harwood Oswaldtwistle Rishton church Your input would be appreciated. Matty |

Green Haworth, Belthorn, Knuzden, some on your list aren't towns or villages, just electoral wards

Aspden, Bank Hey, Belmont, Black Law, Bowley, Broughton Barn, Rothwell, Miller Fold, Fern Gore, Green Haworth, Duckworth, Chequers, Cliffe, Cockerly, Belthorn, Bedlam, West End & Cowhill. I've about 200 old names for areas that originally came within the parishes contained by Church Kirk, Altham, St James Acc and St Barthomews Gt Harwood. There is nothing within this part of Lancs, that has other than a BB5 post code. Retlaw. |

Re: List of towns in Hyndburn?
Thank you for you replies.
I have added most of them to the Freecycle.org website so that when they & BB5 are put in the search they all bring up the Hyndburn group. Thank s, Matty |
