Title: Sharples in Longridge
Post by: iddon on Thursday 31 December 15 14:11 GMT (UK)
Does anyone have access to the Preston Chronicle or similar? I'm searching for any related articles to a John Sharples who was involved with Chapel Hill quarry, Denham and Whittle quarries approx 1840 onwards.

I don't know if you have seen this newspaper offer but I think Preston papers are on the BNA

You should find Preston Chronicle Sep 15 1849 article regarding partnership monies in a contract at Denham Hill Quarry.
