You sure number 30 was on the left hand side? Google earth show even numbers on the right hand side. The White house with blue winder sills is number 56, so would think that was the even number side. Looks like number 30 has long gone and would have been where the entrance to Jewson's builders  are now.

If you go round the corner on Street View (along Brook St), there is a sign on the back of the building that says SBT and Anderton.  Looks therefore as if the blue door belongs to:

SBT Gearing Solutions Ltd
Barnbrook Gear Works

Dear Friends, thanks for sharing with me all that info appreciate.
Adam was one of the most famous champion wrestlers Lancashire had in XIX century.
He was also a publican at some point he owned the pub Lancashire Wrestler, it was also located at Moorside I am not quite sure if it was on 30 Badger Str, though, any ideas ???
