Noise being created during the transformation of a former college site in Chilwell has been described as like a tank battle .
EVERYTHING is up for grabs in Pendle as all its 12 new wards are up for election in May 6. The controversial Conservative-inspired changes to the borough s political map saw the number of councillors cut from the current 49 to 33. The number of wards was reduced from 17 to 12 meaning that how the party cards will fall on polling day is a real guessing game. Despite the controversy over the redrawn political map, the election will be overshadowed by the sudden death last month of veteran Liberal Democrat strategist Lord Tony Greaves. The general view is that the new wards will be largely neutral.

Tony Greaves, Lord Greaves, who has died aged 78, was a stalwart of the Liberal party and then the Liberal Democrats for half a century. Elevated to the peerage in 2000 on Charles Kennedy’s nomination, he used his position in the Lords to extend his career of community activism and to try to promote a more radical kind of Liberalism in the upper house. While doing so he continued as a member of Pendle borough council in Lancashire, to which he had been elected on its formation in 1973, serving for almost 50 years until his death.
