Council sa ys thank s to r o ck ban d


A CLITHEROE rock band feels it has been snubbed by the Ribble Valley Council following a “be-bob concert” at the Castle Bandstand.


The groups — Tokyo,


Logic and Just a Rumour — played in the concert, which the council reported as a great success. But Peter Hulmes, a


member of Tokyo, said: “The council seems to have taken all the credit for organising the event, when in fact all the hard work was done by the bands. All the council did was give permission to use the bandstand.” Peter, of St Anne’s


Square, Low Moor, added: “ It actually cost Tokyo about £100 for the hire . of equipment and photocopying posters.”


The council had not


thanked any of the bands since the concert,' he added. A spokesman for the


council explained that the concert had been organ­


ised through one person, who had since left the dis­ trict. “The council has not


tried to take any credit' and it has been reported to committee that the con­ cert was successful, with excellent music enjoyed by a wide range of people,” he said. “The council would have thanked the bands, but


. we had no way of contact­ ing them.” But, he added, he would now be in touch .with Peter Hulmes to ex­ plain the situation.

Electrical firms in merger


THE future of a Clitheroe electrical shop could be at stake fo l low in g the merger of Relayvision and Edwin P. Lees. Both companies have


retail outlets in the town — Relayvision in Castle Gate and Edwin P. Lees in Wellgate. Mr Roy Axon, manag­


ing director of the en­ larged company, said the Relayvision shop will have its name changed to Edwin P. Lees. But he added: “We have no plans for closing either of the shops, although that may change at some time.”

Cadets k ep t on th e g o at annual cam p


THESE four Ribble Valley youngsters have joined up with 400 Lancashire Army Cadets


.taking part in a hectic training programme at Nescfiffe, near Shrewsbury.


How MP voted on


pay issue RIBBLE Valley MP Mr David Waddington sup­ ported the compromise amendment on MPs’ pay amounting to a five and a half per cent increase. In the vote, in the Commons, last week, MPs opted for the immediate increase with subsequent annual rises to £18,500 by 1987. However, Mr Wadding­


ton voted against an amendment by Sir Hugh Fraser that, from 1987, MPs’ pay should be linked with that of civil servants now receiving £18,500, rather than those on that rate by then.


Mr Waddington told the <


Advertiser and Times: “Quite simply, I think the Government was right and I’m sorry things went the way they did. “ I personally felt four


per cent was enough, but because of the feeling in the House, the Govern­ ment agreed to support the compromise amend­ ment.”


During their 12-day


stay at the Territorial Army base in Shropshire, the foursome from the Clitheroe detachment will be taking part in a 15-mile march and sampling as­ sault-course training.


Also on the programme


are drill sessions, field- craft, map reading, climb­ ing, canoeing, swimming and weapon training . . . and the four lads will be doing their own cooking into the bargain.

Tel. d Since then,' the NCC


has been keen to open some form of room show­ ing details of the trail.


Now, with the help of a


£900 grant from the NCC, Mr Neil Turner, assistant keeper (geology) at the museum, has put together the exhibition which fea­ tures a panoramic photo­ graph of the trail, cover­ ing three walls.

that there was no proper history of the quarry on show anywhere, so I thought this would be a good idea.” Mr Turner has also in­


cluded a large map of the trail, again because there were no large-scale maps available to the public. Also there is a general


board on geological con­ servation, which comes part and parcel with NCC-funded projects. The room has now been open to the public for two


weeks, but today it will be officially opened by the Ribble Valley Mayor, Coun. Ted Boden. Mr Turner said: “The


quarry has always been popular, but we have kept up its importance by put­ ting a trail round it. We hope this will encourage more people to go there a f te r v is it in g the museum.” _______

P la n t in g f o r the future


TH E Countryside Commission is now of­ fering grant aid for small-scale amenity tree planting and for the management of woodland on sites of up to a quarter of a hectare. The Commission and


the Ribble Valley Council are jointly involved with promoting the planting of native trees to compen­ sate for loss through dis­ ease, neglect and over- maturity and hope that landowners will support this effort to improve the countryside and ensure the future presence of trees. The council is acting as


up to a maximum of 50 per cent, including profes­ sional costs of scheme design, labour, materials, plants and planting. For woodland manage­


agent for the Commission, being responsible for vet­ ting schemes and making recommendations on grant offers. Grants will be available


ment, acceptable costs in­ clude fencing, draining,


spection o f land and advice on suitable trees, their number and location. It will also arrange for the inspection of woodland and advice on manage­ ment from the Lancashire County Council’s Trees’ Officer. Also available is help in


drawing up schemes; in­ formation on tree sup­ pliers and firms to cany out the work.


Application forms for


grant aid are available from the Borough Plan­ ning and Technical Of­ ficer, at the Ribble Valley Council offices.


The council is also offer­


ing help to deal with Dutch Elm disease, which is now evident in several parts o f the Ribble Valley.


To arrest the spread of


disease, infected trees should be felled as soon as possible to ground level, debarked, and the bark and branch wood burned immediately on site.


To compensate for the


loss of elms the council offers two replacement trees for each diseased elm felled. These may be chosen from beech," ash, alder, birch, rowan or sy­ camore.
