I can has part of an Heritage Park. Visualise a number of life size Bronze Sculptures telling the history of Accrington and her cluster of townships. I can Visualise small clearings within the trees (preferably native ones) at key points with full access; within these clearings and on the top of the coppice you would have memorial sculptures to key events; Bronze Statues of a group of miners looking out and pointing toward Moorcroft. Overlooking Peel Park a cluster Bronze Statues of Accrington Stanley Players striking out towards Goal. Looking out towards the old Drill Hall a group of Pals before the tragedy looking proud and full of vigour, (it was all suppose to be over before Christmas) On the Top of the coppice over looking the town a Replica of the Pals Memorial in Sheffield Memorial Park. And on, Cotton, Chemicals, Dark Mills, Water, we have it all. The story of Hyndburn fixed within the Landscape Known to all of us.
