Thanks for that info, Blackrodweaver, I've just been reading about that on WW Forum too.

www.chorleycitizen.co.uk (20/3/14):

'The move has not been without controversy, with the Mayor of Horwich, the town closest to the tower but in the borough of Bolton, slamming Chorley Council for ‘hijacking’ Rivington Pike, without consulting the town’s residents.

Coun Christine Root said residents will be ‘absolutely outraged’ to see the Chorley stamp on the Grade-II listed building.

But Coun Bradley hit back, saying they wanted to put Chorley on the map, and chose Rivington Pike as a ‘landmark’ to show just how far the town spreads.'
