I know exactly what the council said. It was reported that they had put £20,000 aside out of their budget, which would be for new road signs, and which from my investigations would cover the cost and erection of only four signs, not even enough for Oswaldtwistle. No mention of it costing us anything else. We shall see.
As for the Hyndburn Chamber of Commerce, they are based at Scaitcliffe House, say no more.
