Reconciliation not


impossible


AS A naturalist, I am deeply concerned about the p r e s e r v a t i o n o f th e amenities of such places as Stocks, but I see no reason why the interests of the naturalist and those of the w e ek end motorist and picnicker cannot be recon­ ciled.


The, many surveys which


have been undertaken of the habits o f the weekend motorist, have all shown that few motorists ever stray out of sight of their cars. Stocks reservoir is large enough for there to be no disturbance of wild life were car access to be confined to one side of the re servoir ,. and footpaths provided to enable pedest­ rians to gain access to the other side.

the Entwistle Reservoir n e a r B o l t o n and the Anglezarke reservoir near Horwich, and at neither place has the fact that motor roads impinge on the banks at a few places resulted in serious disturbances of wild life, whilst, at Entwistle, the permissive footpaths created by the water author­ ity, at no greater expense than that involved in throw­ ing stones into the boggier patches, have proved of great benefit to naturalists.


It should be remembered


too, that the great interest of reservoirs resides m the wildfowl which visit them m winter, when there are few weekend motorists and no picnickers.

Stocks area, all that is neces­ sary is the provision of adequate footpaths. These would be little used by weekend motorists and picnickers, but would be mu ch a p p r e c ia te d by naturalists and ramblers, particularly if they included one from the village of Slaid- bum to the reservoir, for the benefit of those who take conservation seriously and who, in consequence, do not run cars.

The Ribble Valley will

Clitheroe railway station p la t fo rm s re-opened to allow local people to use the


service The station buildings


themselves would not be needed but agreements would have to be reached by th e c ou n c i ls with the Ribblesdale Sports and Social Club owners concern- in g the platforms and


access. Mr Charles Wilson, Chief


A r ch itec t and Planning O f f ice r fo r the Ribble Valley, has asked in his latest reply to me: “ If the Clitheroe station platforms were to be reopened for the Dales rail link, would the level of usage justify it?” In an effort to assess


support for the reinstate­ ment of Clitheroe station platforms, would any people likely to use the weekend


service please send me. a note simply containing then- name and address, with “Reinstate Clitheroe Station Platforms” at the top. With the co-operation of


the Social Club, financial support from the council and co-operation with the Dales­ rail service, it would be possible for Ribble Valley people to spend a day in Hellifield, Settle, Holton,


Dent, Garsdale, Kirkby Stephen, Appleby, Lazonby, Armathwaite and Carlisle by tram on a beautiful scenic


route. I believe such a service


would be a boon to the people of the Ribble Valley


and be well used. Readers, what do you


think? GRAHAM NUTTALL 37 Bar Street, Burnley.

History teaches us nothing


IN ASKING for clarifica­ tion, Mr de la Rue wonders why I call his attitude “self­ ish,” with regard to making Stocks what he terms “avail­ able to all.” Frankly I would say these


people are not only selfish but jealous, a term which can also be applied to Mr de la Rue’s repeated reference t o - “ perks” enjoyed by employees of the water authority. This is perhaps the only


point on which I would agree, hence my sly remin­ der of free coal, and I would include all the perks which almost every worker takes as part of his job, from the odd te le p h on e call to the hundred and one items the boss doesn’t know about. Once he starts, let him


continue until the entire edifice falls. However it is this ques­


tion of making things avail­ able “to all’ which is the most important. During the last


ing that once the thin edge of the wedge is permitted,


you hastentheendofanarea which should be preserved for a future generation. I have repeatedly drawn attention to what has been


Eroved in other countries,


the writing on the wall. Obviously history teaches us that history teaches us nothing. Cannot we learn from the mistakes of others? Please, Mr de la Rue, stop


ut Mr de la Rue cannot see


harping on my being selfish. Remember, I have had more than my share of diminish­ ing amenities and at my stage of life wonder if the next generation will have the same if, for instance, he has his way. A word of advice regard­


ing my bird watching. Had Mr de la Rue spent some time at this activity, his powers of observation would have been greatly inten­ sified and would therefore have made it possible for him to appreciate what a refuse dump most places would become if the general public were allowed free access. Yes, I do believe there are


those who will devastate any area. For God’s sake let him remove his tinted glasses and take a look at any public place after the. herds have passed through.

Popular figure


THE recognition of Mr


Arthur Foole’s long service to William Westhead and Sons will give much pleasure to many people, particularly those who once worked at Salford Bridge Mill and knew him - personally. He was always well liked. A stylish batsman, Arthur


was one of two cricketing brothers who played for Clitheroe CC, the other being Tom, a fast bowler. Arthur was also one of.


trio of cricketers working fo r the same firm. The others were Harold Thomas and Joe Thompson and they too, played for Clitheroe A n d in r e f e r r in g t Clitheroe, one must not fo rg e t that Mr Stanley Westhead’s son, Simon, is a former captain and still


plays for the club. In c id en ta l ly , Arthur


Foole and Harold Thomas (who • spent a lifetime at Westhead’s) are honorary members of Clitheroe GC, Joe Thompson is a familiar figure on the greens of Clitheroe Golf Club. COVER POINT, Clitheroe.
