appendixb-sourcesUnlike Burnley and many of the other towns in Lancashire there has never been a detailedgeneral history written of Padiham. As a result the Padiham Heritage Appraisal has had to usea variety of different source materials including various published works, newspaper articles,the census, ordnance survey maps, building control records and old photographs in orderto gain an insight and understanding into the development of the town. These sources arereferenced throughout the appraisal and listed in Appendix C.Published Works104 heritage appraisalThe lack of a comprehensive history has meant that the Padiham Heritage Appraisal has hadto rely heavily on a small number of published works. These publications have been usedto lay the foundations for the information given on the historic development of the town andto assess the historic and architectural significance of a number of buildings and features.For example the trade directories of the 19th and early 20th centuries have provided vitalinformation on the local economy and on the trades and professions of those living in Padiham.Bennett’s four volume series entitled a ‘History of Burnley’ published between 1946 and 1951was until recently the most modern published historical account of Padiham. Although the mainfocus is on Burnley, Bennett does give a brief account of Padiham during the Middle Agesthrough into the 19th century.In the late 20th century a small number of other local historians also had work published onPadiham’s history. These include Armstrong, Glenn and Haines and Jones. Armstrong’s 1985‘Owd Padiham’ contains a pictorial history of the town during the late 19th and early 20thcenturies. Armstrong also gives some interesting facts and information about the buildings,places, features and people illustrated in the photographs.Between 1989 and 1990 Glenn wrote a series of articles published in the Red Rose Magazine,which give a detailed history of Padiham. Glenn also worked with members of the WorkersEducational Association (WEA) Local History Class at Padiham Adult Education Centre toproduce ‘St. Giles St: The History of a Working Class Street’ in 1986. The information givenprovides not only an insight into the work, lives and living conditions of those living in St. GilesStreet but also those living and working in Padiham during the 19th century.Haines and Jones produced ‘Padiham Urban District Council 1894-1974: Eighty Years of LocalGovernment’ in 1994. This publication has been used to understand the administration of localgovernment during the town’s industrial and development boom.More recently Lancashire County Council and Egerton Lea Consultancy have produced aseries of Historic Town Assessment Reports. The draft ‘Padiham Historic Town AssessmentReport’ published in 2004 provides a useful overview of the development of the town frommedieval settlements through to modern day developments. This draft report has alsoevaluated, assessed and characterised buildings, streets and neighbourhoods in the town.In addition Rothwell’s ‘Industrial Heritage: A Guide to the Industrial Archaeology of Padihamand District’, 2005 has provided the core information on Padiham’s industrial buildings used inthe Appraisal.List of Published ReferencesArmstrong D 1985.
