THE serious shor­ tage of industrial si tes in Clitheroe was spotlighted 'at a meeting at .which the Ribble Valley Coun­ cil was urged to go ahead with the next phases of redevelop ing Salthill quarry. Much of the Dill for about £lm. would be paid for by the Gov­


quarry at a cost of £547,000, for which there would be a 100 per cent Government grant, and to provide a 12-acre site for light industry and haulage firms.
