Foxhall Village is one of the oldest communities in Blackpool but residents say it is neglected
Residents of Foxhall Village – part of the historic heart of Blackpool – have launched a petition calling for more investment in their community.
Carole Cregan, a hotelier on Bairstow Street since 1989, said: “This used to be such a vibrant place. Ten years ago this was Blackpool’s street of year. But today visitors are put off by more and more pockets of neglect – and the council aren’t bothered.”Named after the 17th-century Fox Hall that once graced the area when Blackpool’s coastline was largely deserted, Foxhall Village holds a significant place in Blackpool’s heritage.
