NORWEB had an electrical training centre in Chorley, Little Carr lane known as the Daniel Training Ctr.
I understand it was built in the 1970's and demolished in 2010 (ish). It was an outstanding place of training covering everything from appliance repair to underground lead wipe joints and overhead lines.
Full scale mock ups of aspects of construction in order to teach that all important skillset of getting a cable from 'A' to 'B'. It even had sports fields for the lads who stayed in the residential side!
I served my apprenticeship thereas well as all forms of assessments passed. I would like to hear from anyone with memories or pictures from time spent there. Pictures from within would be good to see again.
