Re: Hyndburn to be axed.

Anyone relocating to Accrington, Ossy, Rishton, Harwood or wherever will relocate to those towns and probably not even see the name Hyndburn until they get their council tax bill.

At present Ossy, Rishton, Harwood, Clayton, Altham all retain their own identities equally under the Hyndburn umbrella alongside Accrington. This will no longer be the case when their seperate identities are lost as the whole area become part of Accrington district. How can the people of Ossy be so pleased at the prospect of losing their individual identity?

Rossendale is a similar entity. There is no town known as Rossendale. There is a town called Rawtenstall and it is within Rossendale. Would Haslingden be happy to be simply a part of Rawtenstall?
