Just a point though. Whether you like it or not, and aesthetics are very personal, it is getting publicity for Burnley - good publicity at that.

Crown Point. It had become a place where you needed a dog to take for a walk if you went up there.

Well at least Burnley folk will be able to whistle while they w**k with their dogs. I always thought there was something dodgy up there….

Re: Singing Ringing Tree, Burnley

Where is it getting publicity? There was a mention on Granada news but news is very quickly forgotten. How many people can now remember the one Blackburn have and where it is located?

It is a very freaky weird sound. I'd certainly not call it singing or ringing, but then again I wouldn't call it a tree either.

It doesn't look quite like the artists impression but then things never do do they? I'm not sure whether I find it attractive or not but I do agree that it's the best of the bunch.
