The large out of town shopping areas have also meant the demise of many of Accringtons shops. I cana't think of anything that would breathe some life into the place.
Having said that, we went to Bury yesterday and the town centre of Ramsbottom was closed off for a chocolate festival...the place was throbbing.
Ramsbottom is only a lttle place with lots of independent shops......it always seems busy when we pass through it, so maybe we should ask them how they do it.

Maybe it's because they don't have Britcliffe imposing his will on the yes-men in his political entourage.
