Blackpool Council is seeking listed building consent for the work, which needs to be approved at national government level
Some of the lights on Blackpool Tower are set to be replaced after surveys of the famous landmark uncovered corrosion.
Blackpool Council, which owns the Tower, is seeking listed building consent for the work, which needs to be approved at national government level because the Victorian landmark is Grade I listed. But if permission is granted, the new lights will boost the visual impact of the Tower – which was part of the Lighting Up the Nation project featured at this year’s Coronation Concert.
It says: “The contribution of the lighting strips in terms of the illumination of the Tower – and important contribution to its aesthetic and communal value – will be maintained with the new lights.
