A FOUNDRY has won a top national green award.
Ouzledale Foundry in Barnoldswick won an award under the Brightsite Campaign which aims to help small and medium-sized companies improve their working environments.
The foundry, helped by Groundwork East Lancashire, has completed the first phase of improvement under the scheme which includes the planting of nearly 2,000 trees and shrubs, new canalside railings and a mural.
The scheme won the award for the 'Best Implemented Brightsite Sketch Scheme' at a ceremony in Milton Keynes.
Burnley-based Lupton & Place also won a commendation for their sketch scheme which they hope to start work on later this year.
