Cities in Focus - Blackburn in Lancashire.

Taking the camera around the city streets to record some of the changing architecture happening during the massive redevelopment of the central area. Once a thriving mill town Blackburn was hit hard when this industry failed. It has one of the highest Muslem communities in England yet in the centre of the city you would not appreciate this. Opened today, 1st June 2011, the new market hall beneath the existing shopping mall sees the fruition of one of the biggest redevelopment projects so far.
