SIX extra characters have been added to a new toy brick trail around Blackburn.

But parents and youngsters will need to have their wits about them when it comes to tracking down the naughty kittens from Paw Patrol.

The colourful felines will be dotted around Blackburn Markets as part of an unique promotion organised by Blackburn Business Improvement District (BID).

Twenty-one favourites from the Nick Jr TV programme, including Chase, Marshall and Skye had already been lined up for the town centre trail, which runs from August 23 to September 1 and has been dubbed 'Brickburn'.

Catherine Price, Blackburn BID Manager, said: “From little ones to big kids, Brickburn will have something for all fans with these iconic brick models.

"We hope families will enjoy exploring Blackburn town centre, visiting each PAW Patrol character on the trail, and helping us to locate each of these naughty kittens in Blackburn Market."

Modelling specialists Brick Live will construct the characters elsewhere before they are transported to East Lancashire and installed.

An estimated 160,000 bricks will be used on Marshall's fire truck alone.
