I think we just travelled (ever so slightly) because we have been interested in the whole panopticon idea. Even if people do come from further afield to see something on the Coppice, which we've already established would hardly be visible anyway, I am yet to be convinced how this could possibly benefit the town in any shape or form.
Did anyone who went to see the "Ossywood" sign actually benefit Oswaldtwistle in any way? Did any of you spend any money there? All we did was park for five minutes and take a couple of photos.
