I do believe that Hyndburn did once have more than it's fair share of open water sites....The only ones that now appear remaining are Foxhill Bank, Hagg Lodge & the Canal. Yet the most successful urban regeneration schemes in the country - Salford Quays, Albert Dock, Newcastle Riverside & London Docklands have all been based around the successful and imaginative development of water assets. What a shame that those idiots at HBC could not have followed suit.
