BY-PASS road will mean demolition of her home


The o«'ner °' a large detached house at Whalley


received a sevcrc sfl°vk when she discovered that the pro­ posed by-Pass ro_ leading from Billington to Rose Cot­ tages, Whalley) would mean the demolition of her home.


And at a roeeting of Clitheroe Rural Council High­


ways’ conimille® on Monday Coun. J. H. Fell deplored the fact that Mrs-.™ M. Robbins of Netherlcy, Mytton Road, had not been ,n . trned of this fact, declaring: “This strikes me as a gr°ss “^regard of the rights of citizens and I .feel the officials responsible are deserving of a severe repri­


mand.” ' .


Coun. Fell said he felt the omission had been due to


the “laxity ol llle County Council.” He added that Mrs. Robbins had now had


the ' fact confirmed after making enquiries from the


county. Mr T. P. Gushton, Clerk to Clitheroe Rural Council,
