Previously in the "Unknown" section, this old postcard shows Blackamoor Church. Janet Gimber has located a Blackamoor being part of Blackburn. Such limited information we've been able to find suggests that this is St. James at Lower Darwen, which was demolished in 1969. Definitive confirmation would be welcome!! Postcard from the Bulman Collection.
