A couple of Clarets stars were on hand at a sod cutting ceremony in Nelson to mark the start of improvements works at Pendle’s premier college.

Burnley FC players Michael Duff and Alex Cisak joined Nelson and Colne College Principal Amanda Melton, academy footballers and a rugby player to mark the start of construction of the new facilities.

The project will see a range of improvements to the campus including a full sized flood lit 4G sports pitch constructed from the latest artificial sports surface materials.
