Clarrie Read was the Secretary of the Bacup Natural History Society after coming across some articles in the societies collection, written by a elderly man describing his youth in the 1800's Bacup.

Other memories featured here are those of  Mr Richard Greenoff , Mr Pilling  and Mrs Goulding who wrote her memories down in 1974. Clicking the link will open the article in a new window.
