We are a long way from 'Hartley Pans for sailors, Bedlington for Nailers'
Maybe that was the slogan that got people here to buy , much needed, nails.
Now we have History , Heritage and so much more.
There has to be a simple effective slogan.
One concern has to be that, when we get people into the town, we need the simple things.
Parking ,public conveniences not to mention the odd shop or two in the well named 'Market Place'.
Sadly five years of planning and development may be too long to wait.
