as you came down the brew from Gt Harwood into Whalley there were 2 pubs occupied adjacent corners as you came into the T junction, the one on the left I think was the Whalley Arms, the other?? - across the road - the Dog and a little further down almost opposite the bus station - de Lacey - ( around the corner was the Starlight Club? casino and revue bar?)
Last time I was in Whalley had steak pudding, chips and mushy peas form chippy next to Whalley arms -- scoffed them on a park bench

Can't remember that club being the Starlight Club Martin, was the Ace Of Spades, Starlight was in Little Harwood Blackburn

Just short was in Billington, had workmates lived on pasterlands drive n was there local.

[martin01]

yes again, the Judge was further on - the one I'm talking about was literally 2 minutes walk over the bridge ( still going toward Langho AND Blackburn

Well Billington's just short of Lango pasturlands cardboard jungle, Derek Barnes built them, seeing his handy work glad he failed in his attempts to by the Rovers

[martin01]

Oh, are you sure? Cashie
I don't suppose you could just nip down there quickly (you're only round corner) just to confirm?

yep them houses were crap built, many who lived yon used to think they were somebody,including me mates, i took great pleasure in reminding em they weren't. think they were built around 1960, as was 63 when i used to go down.

I started work down Whalley in 1963 cashy and they were still building on pasturlands then, sortley after he opened a new site in lango itself
