In 1910, a quiet corner of Accrington was torn apart when Williams Draper’s – a thriving local store – was engulfed in a sudden and devastating inferno. Within minutes, the building became a blazing trap, and five innocent lives were lost.
In this video, we retrace the events of that tragic July evening. Through eyewitness accounts, historic records, and a haunting reconstruction of the final moments inside the store, we explore how the fire started, why it spread so quickly, and how the victims became trapped above the flames.
This is more than a story of a fire – it is a story of a community shaken, a building reduced to ashes, and five souls whose memories still echo through the streets of Accrington.
Join us as we uncover the forgotten tragedy of the Williams Draper’s Fire – and the lessons it left behind.
