AFTER a stunning start Great Harwood found themselves on the back foot in this NWCL Division Two clash.
They got off to the best of starts as Shaun Bursnell, grabbing his third goal of the campaign, put them in front after only a minute.
It took Norton a little while to get over the shock of this early setback and, despite Brooks grabbing an equaliser ten minutes before half-time, Great Harwood were very much in the contest at the interval.
However, it was Norton who struck the first blow in the second half as Owen put them in front for the first time on 52 minutes and when Fowler bagged a third 10 minutes later Great Harwood were chasing the game.
Town were never to recover with Owen delivering the killer blow on 70 minutes with his second and Norton's fourth goal.
NORTON UNITED...4 GREAT HARWOOD...1
