More about Accrington Lancashire
Accrington, in the County of Lancashire, is a small former mill town in the industrial north-west of England. Its name is thought to be a corruption of 'acorn-ring-town', although the old oak woods that once encircled the town have long-since gone, victims of the Industrial Revolution. Since the redrawing of the political boundaries in 1974, the town has formed part of the Borough of Hyndburn — a merging of Accrington together with the smaller 'satellite' towns of Oswaldtwistle, Church, Clayton-le-Moors, Great Harwood and Rishton, into one political 'seat'.
The 2001 census gave the population of Accrington town proper as 35,203. The figure for the built-up area ("Accrington Urban Area") was 71,224, up 1.1% from 70,442 in 1991. For comparison purposes that is approximately the same size as Aylesbury, Carlisle, Guildford or Scunthorpe urban areas.
The town is linked to Burnley and Blackburn by railway and by the M65 motorway. There was once a rail link south to Manchester via Haslingden and Bury, but this was closed in the 1960s as part of cuts following the Beeching Report. The trackbed is now mostly covered by the A56 dual carriageway road, which provides a link to the M66 motorway.
There is a sizeable shopping area and precinct in Accrington, with a selection of major chain stores such as Marks and Spencer and Boots.
For many decades, the textile industry was the central activity of the town. Mills and dye works provided work for the inhabitants, but often in very difficult conditions. There was regular conflict with employers, most famously in the 1842 'Plug riots' where a general strike spread from town to town, as thousands of strikers walked over the hills from one town to another to persuade people to join the strike. The strike joined up with the Chartist movement, but was not successful in its aims.
Accrington's famous sons and daughters include: Jon Anderson of rock band Yes; author Jeanette Winterson, whose Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit is an account of her childhood in the town; and composer Harrison Birtwistle. David Jones of the Monkees music group was also a native. Famous ex-residents include darts player Ronny Baxter and the National Lottery's Mystic Meg!
