In Part 11 of Henry Harrison's tales on Old Cleckheaton, we find this entry in relation to William (Billy) Clough:
"He formerly resided in the house fronting on to what is now Alfred Hall's shop - the house where Mrs Fearnley, who left a legacy to the Old Red Chapel, once resided. While here, Billy kept a beershop, which was called "Hammer and Stiddy," and his smithy stood with its back to the present road leading to the Co-operative Society's offices."
In an earlier part of the same series of articles (Part 3) he further mentions these premises:
"Alec Dixon and Billy Clough afterwards became well-known Cleckheaton worthies, and their names are held in honour. Dixon especially was a man of sterling worth, and was much esteemed by his fellow townsmen. Before leaving Billy, let me say he was a blacksmith at the Old Pear Tree, and resided in the house formerly occupied by Mrs Fearnley. While here, he opened a beerhouse, and the house next to this was for a long time occupied by Saddler Herring. These two houses were purchased by William Brooke, butcher, who sold them to a draper named Mr Scott, who in turn, pulled the houses down, re-built them, and for some years carried on his business there."
To add to the above information, we also have an entry from the 1841 Census which lists William Clough as a beer seller, but the identity of the premises is not identified:
1841 - Trade Directory - Pigot & Co., National & Commercial Directory records William Clough as a retailer of beer, Cleckheaton
6 Jun 1841 - Census entry - Top of the Town, Cleckheaton. Premises not named but evidence suggests it was here
