A SERIES of artworks have shown how Blackburn s Imperial Mill and the county s canals could look if an ambitious redevelopment proposal is realised. The artworks were released by the arts commissioning programme The Super Slow Way, which is working on a plan to redevelop the areas around the Leeds and Liverpool Canal including Imperial Mill in Blackburn, the coke ovens in Hyndburn, Northlight Mill in Brierfield and Sandygate Square in Burnley into visitor destinations offering water sports and places to eat and drink alongside arts and culture programmes. The charity has released a feasibility study into the plans, known as the Pennine Linear Park project, alongside Lancashire County Council, Blackburn with Darwen, Hyndburn, Burnley and Pendle Borough Councils, with the artworks showing just how big a change their plans could make to the area.
