Accrington Conservative Club destroyed by fire 18th May 2016
Known as the Con Club, the Conservative Club was one of the town's great Victorian buildings. Built in 1890-91 it was designed by Morley and Woodhouse in a classical Renaissance style. The Con Club had a ballroom with sprung dance floor and was well known locally. An elderly lady I met staring at the ruins told me of her memories dancing there.
