Hi I have noticed "activity" on the land next to The Alma pub, Baxenden, all marked off. I have heard there is to be a memorial there for the Baxenden Cllr. who died towards the end of last year.

A newspaper article quoted "Cllr. John Griffiths was a great councillor for Baxenden but he also had a very astute and active mind. He was the wise man of the Conservatives in Hyndburn and he will be very sorely missed.”
The borough’s MP Graham Jones said: “John was hard-working and cared for Baxenden. He deserves lasting recognition.”
