The money from the sale of Chaigley Manor (£600,000+) is with the trustees. They intend using it to fund childrens projects.

hi bob just think of what they could have sold it far if they had held out anouther couple of years, the finance of running the place was o.k. i used to talk to the warden who ran it, it was just that people who had not been there from accrington thought it was a workhouse. they got people in from other countries and further afield than accrington.
