Far Out magazine features English Teacher frontwoman Lily Fontaine and the band's song The World’s Biggest Paving Slab.
She was raised in Colne, a small market town in Lancashire. Colne itself is little known, but it’s a short walk from the manor that inspired the setting of Charlotte Brontë’s Jane Eyre, a town over from where John Simm and Lee Ingleby took their first drama course, and one of many sites once on watch for witchcraft during the Pendle witch trials. It also happens to house the largest paving slab on record. (Megan Hullander)
That would be Ferndean Manor which was supposedly based on Wycoller Hall, near Colne.
Plans to expand a sandstone quarry in Bradford's Brontë country have been blocked by a Government inspector for a second time after a land swap offer was rejected. (Aisha Iqbal)
