At the time of opening this thread, a thread I began a while ago concerning Milnshaw Park and its sad and sorry state of decline, has been revived.

It seemed odd and yet so typical of HBC to read that it would be applying for funding to create new public open spaces and "Wildlife" areas when they cannot afford to adequately maintain the parks they already have responsibility for.

I notice from the report quoted above that Milnshaw has been passed over, yet again though Peel Park, The Coppice and Arden Hall are included. Perhaps HBC needs more councilors of the stamp of the estimable Cllr Jones.
