A GIANT Accrington Pals banner will be installed after plans were given the green light. The 7.5m by 65m banner will wrap around the Broadway Offices building, above shops such as Greggs, British Heart Foundation, and Nationwide.
The banner will feature several shots of soldiers from the regiment, formally known as the 11th East Lancashire Regiment, posing, sitting and marching, accompanied by large images of the Union Jack, and poppies. The banner was given the go-ahead during a planning meeting at the council.
