I used to walk past there every morning on my way to St.Peters school and all there was on that site where the Kieby was built was derelict land. I remember Sir Richard Attenborough staying at the Kierby when he was filming "Whistle down the wind" and he could be seen driving through the town in his big maroon Rolls Royce.
There is an old Burnley map on http:/daleeccles.net.burnley, go to the bottom of the home page.
