Whether it is an avoca­ do pear or an intique chest


more than 150 years old, you can buy almost any­ thing you want in Moor Lane or Castle Gate. In fact, by starting at the


beginning of Moor Lane and going through to the end of Castle Gate it is almost possible to clothe a whole family and furnish an entire house. And you could buy the house itself on the same shopping trip! Little has changed over


the years. The shops— some of them still bear the names they had more than 50 years ago—still have t h e i r awnings providing shade in the summer, and service is personal and


helpful. Each shop, naturally


enough, has a regular clien­ tele but strangers passing through also provide much


of the trade. It has been known that


people living in the Black- The MINIATURE ‘GOLDEN MILE’ !


burn and Burnley areas seeing things in the shop windows while out for a Sunday drive have returned on the Monday to shop.


Family businesses are


always an integral part of a town such as Clitheroe. and the Moor Lane and Castle Gate area has quite a share of them. Some of the shops have


been in their respective families for more than 60 years. Tn some cases the type of merchandise has chanced but the name


hasn’t. If rivalry exists, it is cer­


tainly very friendly: Two Card Shop

shops, next door to each other, sell the same thing, but, far from creating cut­ throat competition, they help each other.


If a customer in one


shop fails to find what she wants, then she is told to try next door.


Amazing The variety of tastes for


which the shops cater is amazing.


One person can buy an


expensive piece of crystal or an inexpensive wrist watch. There are shops sel­ ling continental modern


glassware and ornaments popular with young people, and there are others selling traditional china figures. Tapestry work, darning


mushrooms and lace col­ lars and cuffs are all avail­ able. Home dressmakers can


choose front a wide selec­ tion of patterns, including some front a high fashion manufacturer. Some custo­ mers think nothing of spending £1 or more for a dress pattern; ' Antiques are very' popu­


lar at the moment, and whether you want bric-a- bac or furniture, authentic or reproduction, M o o r Lane and Castle Gate pro­ vide quite a selection to choose from. For people setting up a.

home or replenishing an existing one there is ample choice for dishes and kit­ chenware to suit all pockets. Norwegian coffee sets or traditional stainless steel pans, carpets, lights, tele­ vision sets and washing machines are all readily available within yards of one another. And once your kitchen


is equipped then there are shops providing all the food necessary. Toys and games for the


children, books, jewellery both costume and valuable, fashion accessories, men’s wear . . . one could do all one’s Christmas shopping there, right down to buy­ ing tile wrapping paper, gift and Christmas cards. Shopkeepers are almost


unanimous in their praise of Moor Lane and Castle Gate. The only grumbles concern inadequate parking facilities and the lack of a cafe.


Products Parking is available oil


one side of the street for one hour in any two, but the spaces on, most days are few and. far between. One suggestion front’ a


shop owner was the siting of a bus stop in Castlesate, but this has obvious disad­ vantages. The shops have moved


with the times and are pro­ viding products equal to those of their opposite numbers in much larger towns. New lines soon reach the


counters and often are on sale at the same time as they are in big stores and shops in surrounding towns. As one elderly woman


shopper said: “The things sold now arc better and dearer, and there is far more choice”. And it’s all to be found


in Moor Lane and Castle Gate.
