I would prefer to be able to have pride in a town with a decent shopping centre and clean streets. So many things could be done to improve Accrington but a blot on the landscape is not one of them.

Ah yes the Scaitcliffe fountain. That was a disaster from the day it was finished. The thing wasn't built properly so the waterfall effect never worked right and all it did was attract muck and rubbish. How often were any of the fountains actually working? And even when they were they weren't in sync. Mind you, the best thing you could say about it was that very few people actually saw it tucked away there at the bottom of Ormerod Street. I suppose you could say the same for the Panopticon on top of the Coppice as it can't be viewed from the town.

Why can't we just have the Arndale clock repaired and re-instated? More money wasted.
