Clayton-le-Moors
Clayton-le-Moors is a township in Hyndburn in Lancashire, England, a suburb of Accrington. The town is locally referred to as 'Clayton'. To the west lies Rishton, to the north Great Harwood, and two miles to the south, Accrington. Clayton-le-Moors is situated on the A680 road alongside the M65 motorway.
Description
It is thought that the town developed while the Leeds Liverpool Canal was being built. The half-way point of the Leeds Liverpool Canal is Clayton-le-Moors. A mural that depicted this fact has been demolished. The town's main thoroughfare is Whalley Road, which still has some canal workers' cottages.
Attractions include Mercer Park, freely open to the public, with an updated war memorial, once the grounds of Mercer House. The house was previously Oakenshaw Cottage and it was where John Mercer lived towards the end of his life. Mercer, a self-taught chemist born in Great Harwood, invented the mercerisation process for treating cotton which is still in use today. He was a pioneer of colour photography.
Clayton-le-Moors is said to be a town of halves. Residents were 'top-ender' or 'bottom-ender', depending on which side of the Load O'Mischief pub, now demolished to make way for the M65 motorway. The two had firm opinions about each other and rarely mixed.[citation needed] There was, however, an annual football match between each at the running track at Wilson's Playing Fields. The fields sit behind a woodland in Whalley Road - close to Sparth House. The Synthetic track is surrounded by football pitches, a cricket pitch and changing rooms. There are shops around Pickup Street and Barnes Square.
Sport
Clayton Le Moors Harriers, founded in 1922, is one of the largest athletic clubs in the North of England, catering for cross-country, fell and road running.
Kuon Ji Ju Jitsu Association, is a martial arts club which was established in October 1982, by Sensei Tony Gregson under the guidance of Sensei Thomas Duckett. Initially held in the Methodist Church as Goshin Kempo Ju Jitsu on Church St, it has recently moved to the Local Civic Library on Pickup St.
Education
St. Mary's Primary School was built in 1896 as a Catholic school. The original building, which stood where the playground is, was demolished in 1985 and replaced with a new modern building. The other primary schools include the Church of England's All Saints and the non-denomination Mount Pleasant. There is also a public library in the town.
Pubs
There are a few pubs: The Albion, Hare and Hounds, Hyndburn Bridge, Forts Arms, Wellington Hotel, Oddfellows Arms (pending closure), Sparth Manor - built at an unknown date but sold for the first time in 1556, and Conservative Club. There were three working men's clubs, known colloquially as the top, middle and bottom clubs. The top closed in the 1990s and is now a eating house, the middle is no longer functioning, but the bottom – Park View – remains open.
Hotels
Hotels include the Dunkenhalgh in Blackburn Road, Maple Lodge in Blackburn Road, and Sparth House in Whalley Road.
The Dunkenhalgh is a four-star hotel built around a 700-year-old house – the manor of Dunkenhalgh. The house was built for the Grimshaw family, who also built Clayton Manor. They lived there until around 1715 when the manor passed to the Lomaxes. The manor was recently renovated. Maple Lodge offers four-star accommodation. The house was built in the early 1700s and retains many original features.
Famous people
Comedian Eric Morecambe, of the double act Morecambe and Wise, lived in Clayton while working in a mine as a 'Bevan Boy'. Alex Higgins lived in the town after his arrival from Northern Ireland. East Lancashire had a thriving snooker scene and Higgins was keen to learn from great players in the area. Vicky Entwistle, the actress who played the factory worker Janice Battersby in Coronation Street, has a link to Clayton-le-Moors. Her parents ran a newsagent shop close to the M65 bridge in Whalley Road.[1] Originally from Great Harwood, Netherwood Hughes, one of the last surviving veterans of World War I, died at the Woodlands Home for the Elderly in 2009, aged 108.
