Sparked a Memory for you?

If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?

Can anyone help my daughter who currently lives in Mill St. Farington and has always wondered why there is a gap in the terraced houses in this road. Rumour is that there was an explosion ...gas?... sometime in the last 75 years. We know there was a weaving mill at Railway End, and have read that Farington Hotel had a path through to the mill in Victorian days. Love to know more please. Was the gap made to build the bungalows?
