Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Agree with Lostock Gralam - I feel like I've entered a dystopian future when I drive through there. As a contrast, Fiddlers Ferry power station when approached from the Warrington side is a thing of industrial, symmetrical beauty!

This already has more potential than the most recent deathmatch.

I feel disloyal saying this, being a Merthyr girl and all, but Merthyr Tydfil (even despite attempts at regeneration) has got to be on the list.

Fiddlers Ferry - remember waking up one day and one of the cooling towers had collapsed in the night. I love the Mersey skyline at night when viewed from Frodsham hill, with all the chemical factories, power stations & oil refinery lit up, like a scene from Blade Runner.

Think we've already had Cumbernauld, but Luton & Hemel town centres must prime be candidates . Probably other 1960's new towns too.

Nothing wrong with Luton (or Coventry) that a small thermonuclear device wouldn't fix.
