Newcomers impressed by friendly customers


As the-- old houses in the


area are pulled down, new ones are gradually taking their place and many new­ comers to Clitheroe settle in the Whalley Road vicinity. The steady trade and


friendly atmosphere of the area . also attracts new shop­ keepers who have taken over old-established family busi- lesses.


One of these newcomers,


vlr. Alan Cartlidge, has >een a newsagent for .25 years and left his shop in Cheshire to take over Mr. and Mrs. Harvey’s news- agency in Whalley Road. Since he arrived in the town Mr. Cartlidgc has been astounded by the interest and consideration of his customers.


“My wife and I like it


here very much mainly be­ cause the people are so much more neighbourly than we’ve known in the past,” says Mr. Cartlidge.


Mr. A. Morris, who has


been in a confectionery shop in Whalley Road since Feb­ ruary, serves customers with high class yet simple foods, all made in his own bakery behind the shop.


Perhaps the reason why his


trade has increased by 50 per cent since he took over the shop is because of his long experience as a top baker. In Cleveleys he owned a similar business and he has also had experience in all aspects of hotel catering.


Business, he says, is


extremely good and the people are easy to serve so long as they are given best quality goods.


FIRST ATTEMPT


Another newcomer to the Whalley Road shopping scene is Mrs. Jean Scaffali, who has never run a business before but bought the shop because she wanted to try life as a shopkeeper and because its position was near her home in Langshaw Drive. Now that she has got used


to, working in the shop she would not like to move to bigger premises .in- the centre
