I TAKE exception to your headline: "Regeneration is taking place across the region."
There's not much sign of it here in Darwen -- unless you count the lumps of stone which have been dropped into the middle of Market Street.
Reporter Danny Brierley looked ahead to Blackburn town centre becoming "the jewel in East Lancashire's crown." Here in Darwen we look forward to the "fag-end" of East Lancashire's crown having perhaps two or three more retail shops, fewer empty premises and perhaps less litter floating around.
A lick of paint here and there would be welcome.
HAROLD HEYS, Derby Close, Darwen.
