Remember Warick and Baileys on lower Antley street, they also used to have the place on right going towards Whitebirk roundabout from Rishton, near to the little Res (Cannot remember who has it now) cannot remember them having a place at Church,but not saying they didn't have (my late hubby used to work for them)
