Over 150 people signed a petition against Darwen Tower being built back in the Victorian times.

Firstly I've always said the Coppice was the wrong location in Hyndburn. Doing anything upon such a naturally beautiful place would have been like gilding the lily in my opinion.
The population in Blackburn and Darwen at the end of the nineteenth century was 133,000. So 150 objectors isn't really that many. Besides I did say it should be challenging, as it obviously was to those one hundred and fifty souls.
