Halo - Haslingden, Rossendale The final of the four panopticon’s to be constructed in Lancashire was the Halo, which is found overlooking Haslingden in Rossendale and was designed by John Kennedy of LandLab.

This panopticon is special, as after dark it can be seen to light up the Lancashire skies. Using low energy LEDS and powered by an adjacent wind turbine, The Halo glows a sky blue colour at night which creates a hovering effect.

From this new perspective you can spot Rossendale Valley, Greater Manchester and Pennine Lancashire.
