All this reminds me of the trouble HBC went to to celebrate the centenary (?) of Oakhill Park. Thousands were spent on renovating the rock gardens and renewing the "water feature" . Anyone who has visited recently will know it has not been switched on since. Everything is clogged up and probably past saving again.

Also think about the thousands spent on Haworth Art Gallery. Well worth a visit but take a stroll more than 25 yards from the gallery and the park is in dire need of attention. Not a good advert for Hyndburn as a whole.
