You might already have this but just in case you haven't the following is a newspaper article in the Liverpool Mercury on Tuesday, February 27, 1900 which could be about your grandfather:

Fatality to a Warrington Man - Yesterday, at Blackburn Infirmary, an inquest was held on the body of Edward Boyle, foreman concretor, of Warrington, who was employed by the Manchester Phoenix Fireproof Flooring Company, and whose death was due to injuries received at Darwen last Thursday. When a crane was being moved he was knocked down, the side of his head striking an iron beam, his skull being fractured. He was removed to the Infirmary, but died on Friday. A verdict of "Accidental Death" was returned.

There's another one in Antrim with name just Edward, but date of birth is 1869 ?:-
