Another for Edith Watson ward at Burnley General. My mum was in over Christmas. But it was clearly worth it.

Born in Rossendale, one of the last to be born in the general hospital, I'm lead to believe.
I had an argument with a Burnley fan once. It went like this - hypothetically, if Burnley Football Club moved to a stadium outside the town, it wouldn't bother me. In fact, if the club moved into Rawtenstall, that'll be great for me. He didn't understand my point. I explained to him that have no interest in Burnley - as a town and I only really travel to Burnley to visit the stadium. Apparently I'm not a proper fan then.

Although you could argue that the club represents the town as a status. As a point on the map.
