Hyndburn Hydro would be a step forward in my opinion.
To be honest I hadn't though about the bits where it has been covered, encased or otherwise restricted, I suppose there it would be acceptable, but if you look at the one in Whalley it is right at the weir, and that was a bit of a draw for tourists photographers and general walkers.
