No, it's the place in the field where it used to be when it has mysteriously disappeared.

A carnival float sounds like a brilliant idea. Presumably just discussed at moderator level so far.

Pity about the Arndale Clock. From the headlines in the Observer last year anyone would have thought we'd got that one sorted.

Re: What do I have to do?

Just a note about the clock or the lack of it.
i have been to the town hall and the other places cant think of the name of the other building and NOBODY will give any information out about it they wont even tell me where it is stored.
so Kipax if you could send me by pm or e-mail some addresses i could contact i will see if i can find out what has happend to it and what is being done as this has died a death

Re: What do I have to do?

What exactly are you trying to find out.... have you read the old thread?

we know where the clock is..
we know who own/is responsible for it
we know the person who dismatled has not been asked to put it back
we know greg pope got involved
we know observer got involved
we know who the person at the council is in charge of it

and finally we know that the only thing stopping the clock appearing again is nowhere to put it...

I personally got in touch with the council... the person who designed and made the clock.. greg pope, observer etc..... and ... i put everyhting in the original thread...including copies of emails and fax...


so I am at a loss as to what you or mez or gayle knight are trying to find out ????


in a nutshell the clock is under the arndale.. the council own it and they cant find anywhere to put it.. when they do they will ...put it ...so to speak..

read the old thread........

Re: What do I have to do?

we have, like you said it's died a death, quietly...... but i liked the clock, & am still scratching my head as to where it should go, but if the subject is left alone long enough the council will forget it, right or wrong?

Unless someone comes up with a viable place to put it then its gonna stay dead.. thats how it finished... no one could come up wiht a place for it where it wouldn't get vandalised at night.. had to be somewhere it could be watched (watched...gerrit?) during the day and locked away at night..

Think of somewhere then ask the appropriate people the possibitilites.... But it should be somwhere they havent already thought of... does such a place exist?


I see a thread has been started on accy carnival now.... When I mentioned the idea to Roy 2 mths before the last carnival he wasnt aware of any plans or discussions... seems you lot even kept it secret from the owner of accyweb as well as the rest of the users.,....still fuming on that one TBH .. I mention somehting then you and mick play the high and mighty telling me its already underway..... in secret.....not what accyweb is about at all is it

read the old thread........
The Arndale has changed hands since then. Can we be sure it is still there? It's a pity it couldn't somehow have been incorporated into the re-doing of Broadway.

Re: What do I have to do?

Its underneath the arndale.. I doubt the new owners know there is an underneath... I would be surprised if new owners could pick accrington out on a map... its in storage... doubt its been moved.... would bet my last pair of sweaty socks that its still there.

When we started the campaign it was too late for broadway..

Market hall.. great.... move a few stalls out you mean.... think about it mate
