Re: what would you do ...

so come on then Jen...what is this something broader.
What is Hyndburn known for...not much because Hyndburn is a relatively new invention.
Accrington....Nori Bricks. Tiffany Glass Eubank Carpet sweeper
Clayton...Blakes Vitreous Enamel...being the halfway mark on the Leeds/Liverpool Canal, Dr Lovelaces floating soap.
All of them gone, except for Haworth Art Gallery and the Canal

All of these are itty bitty things...none of them would inspire anyone to come to find out about them....whereas with the Pals regiment there is much interest from those interested in military stuff, those interested in social stuff and it could easily encompass the areas industrial heritage. Is that not broad enough?
Only asking
