My aunt and uncle lived at Blackburn station late 60s to mid 70s I'm told there was a dispute between Sheffield an Rotherham council as to whether it was in Sheffield or Rotherham and as they couldn't decide, British rail had to move them out until it was decided, my uncle was a train driver at the time and has only recently retired, there's already an existing thread about Blackburn station
they are, not sure as for how long as they've put the lease up for sale,
