(2) Pendle Borough Council has funding from the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF), Lancashire Enterprise Partnership and Lancashire County Council to address significant erosion of the riverbank and riverbed on the downstream bend of the river, below the concrete lined channel including re-profiling, installation of scour protection and bank stabilisation materials.
