Description
NELSON IS FALLING APART! Today I explore the gritty streets and town centre of Nelson, Lancashire, uncovering broken shopfronts, abandoned buildings, fly-tipping and piles of rubbish.
Welcome to EPISODE 5 of BROKEN BRITAIN.
I take you through the neglected backstreets and town centre of Nelson to show what I discovered. From rundown properties and rubbish-filled areas to the shocking condition of some of the streets, this is another eye-opening walk through a struggling British town.
During my exploration, I also interview a local lad who talks about the abandoned buildings, known as "bandos", around Nelson. He also shares his own story about being arrested in connection with firearms.
What has happened to Nelson? Why are so many British towns struggling with urban decay, abandoned buildings and fly-tipping?
BROKEN BRITAIN is a documentary-style series exploring Britain's forgotten towns, deprived neighbourhoods, neglected streets and struggling communities.
No filters. No sugar-coating. Just real streets, real people and real conversations.
I want to hear from YOU!
Do you live in Nelson? Has the town changed over the years? Let me know your thoughts in the comments.
