    Manchester Airport is 27 miles (43 km) south; Blackpool Airport 28 miles (45 km) west; and Leeds Bradford Airport 30 miles (48 km) east of Accrington.

    The Haworth Art Gallery contains an outstanding collection of [wiki=e33e20b81f9aee27598c1bc5aaa52bd1]Tiffany glassware[/wiki] presented to the town by Joseph Briggs, an Accrington man who had joined Tiffany’s in the late 19th century and eventually became art director and assistant manager. The Art Nouveau vases are considered to be the most important such group in Europe. One of the most striking items is a glass mosaic exhibition piece, designed by Briggs himself and entitled "Sulphur Crested Cockatoos".

    The gallery also has displays about the Accrington Pals[url=http://www.pals.org.uk/pals_e.htm],]famous within the UK as the smallest home town battalion of volunteers servicemen who fought in the First World War. More than half the battalion were killed or wounded within half an hour on the Pals' first day of action.

    The centre of Accrington boasts a few grand Victorian civic buildings of which the most magnificent is the Market Hall, built in traditional style in 1868, and also the setting for [[:WikiPedia:Jeanette Winterson|Jeanette Winterson[/url]]'s novel "Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit'. There is also the stone railway viaduct that seems to have inspired Accringtonian composer [wiki=a7dac226eb74dbff19a121fd6dac3276]Harrison Birtwistle[/wiki]'s 'The Mask of Orpheus', which is structured around a similar 17-arch viaduct.

    Gawthorpe Hall (3 Miles) was built between 1600 and 1605 for the Shuttleworth family who had already been at Gawthorpe for over 200 years.

    The market is an excellent place to buy Lancashire speciality foods - Lancashire cheese, black pudding, pies, oatcakes, pikelets, tripe and cowheel.
  • filter_dramaEat
    There's the usual collection of fast food outlets, and reasonable Bangladeshi restaurants. The best eateries otherwise will be in the hotels, or in the country pubs and restaurants, especially in the Bowland area.
  • filter_dramaDrink
    There are plenty of pubs (some rather dingy) serving good cheap beer. Always ask for cask beer rather than the mass-produced brands; there are many excellent beers available from small local micro-breweries.
