Got there at last. Dirty Duck it was and then instantly known as the Mucky Duck. Who said we had no imagination back then ????

Spot on, Al. Top of Church Street, turn left into Darwen Street, first on the right, after that big bank-type building. Can't remember there being a nightclub opposite though - thought it was just a row of one-story shops, but I may be wrong. Saw a huge punch up in there in the late 70's - bottles and chairs flying, the lot - after someone got their "stash" confiscated by a bouncer. Happy days!
