Why Accrington jobs are specified this way
Dense rows of 'Accrington Nori' brick terraces with original Welsh slate roofs, plus mid-century estates around Huncoat and Baxenden. Many former mill buildings now converted or in commercial use.
Sheltered compared to the coast, but real elevation in Baxenden and Huncoat brings heavy wind-driven rain in autumn and winter.
