Armley in the news again
Not long after the revelations that not only was Alan Bennett born here but Barbara Taylor Bradford as well, we find Armley hitting the news again in a national broadsheet no less! The Guardian reports, 'Rundown areas win share in £150m lottery grants' . I don't really class my street as run down, well not all of it, but still it's nice to know some cash will be coming our way. According to said lefty broadsheet, payments will restore elegant parks, railings, shopfronts and paving for some of the the most deprived wards in the country. Just in time to fix Charlie Cake Park...hooray! Wayne "Red or Dead" Hemmingway voices his approval saying, "too many British town centres have increasingly suffered from blight. This will help them to catch up with European town and city centres with have become magnets for creative living." I agree with him even though he's a Blackburn fan. Oh and Chapeltown gets a mention too.
