Remember visiting Dad’s relatives in Blackburn back in the late 1960’s early 1970’s. I loved the indoor market, mum and dad bought me a pair of real Lancashire red clogs, I thought I was the bees knees. Haven’t been back since Grandparents died back in the ‘80’s. Intend to take my son to visit Lancashire and show him where Dad grew up.
I miss the old town ! Spent many hours in the museum, as a young boy ! So many bad decisions taken by the council back in the late 50'/ early 60's.that has robbed this town of some splendid Victorian Architectural gems.
