Student David rides to top


sports honour


UNIVERSITY student David Walters, of Howgill, Rimington, has been making a name for himself in international equestrian competi­ tion.


And now the rider who


-achieved distinction as-a member of the British Unive r sity; team last sum m e r , has b e en awarded his university’s highest sporting honour — the “shell.” , :


It has crowned a season


of success for the agricul­ ture student and sports­ man from Manor House Farm who began riding at the, age of 11, joining the Pony C lub’s P en d le Forest and Craven Hunt branch soon after.


David, who is studying


at Reading, earned a place in the national team by coming second in the


' B r i t i sh U n iv e r s i ty Championships at Easter. 1983 in his first year of student competition. He has ridden for the


British team in the Na­ tions’ Cup in France arid Switzerland, and the European and World cups, winning the indi­ vidual showjumping title in the European\ competi­ tion and coming fourth in the world dressage event. : In university competi­ tions, David has had to


round & about


use his natural riding talent and ability to adapt to different mounts. In these competitions,


riders draw from a pool of horses, and have just 10 minutes to get to know their mount. His equestrian achieve­


ments as a student follow success as a schoolboy. David, whose main inter­ ests are dressage and eventing, won the junior individual horse trials and- was a member of the win-' ning dressage team at the Pony Club national finals while an A-level student at Clitheroe Royal Gram­ mar School. He was also on the


short-list for the British Junior European three- day event team. David attributes much


of his success to the Pony Club and in particular to the help he has received from Mrs Shirley Hindle, of End House Stud, Gis- burn, and his parents


Tony and Mary. School pi

was held in the fairly large stone building on the right-hand side as you go down the hill, immedi­ ately next to the central car-park and almost di­ rectly opposite the Rail­ way View entrance to the health centre. In its lifetime the build­


ing has seen a number of uses. In my youth it was The Oddfellows Hall and is today a ladies hairdres­ sing salon. In the Oddfellows Hall,


apart from the uses to which members of the An­ cient Order put it for their own activities, were held the weekly meetings of the PSA. For the benefit of those


readers unable to identify an organisation by the ini­ tials alone (and what a ' number there are of them


today, ‘EEC., BO AC and dozens more) PSA sig­ nified Pleasant Sunday


Afternoons. The organisation held


its meetings weekly and, if you were quick out of Sunday. School, you would be just in time for a further hour of improving discourse and discussion. Not only was my caller


able to give me details of the school under Miss Ramsay (later confirmed by other correspondents) but was able to tell me that, prior to that lady


Whalley Window


assuming the responsibili­ ty, it was run by a Mrs


Wigmore ar>d her daugh­ ter, Miss Muriel. An excellent establish­


ment, I was told, al­ though lacking so many of the amenities’ consi­ dered essential in the schools of today —; an adequate playing area and sports facilities to mention just two. The art master was the


late Edward Cawthorne who also taught at the Whalley Royal Grammar School and whose exquis­ ite water colours of local beauty spots are so much sought after today and command high prices on


the rare occasions they come into local salerooms. To my untutored eye,


where Valley artists, are concerned (and /today we have some quite excellent ones) Edward — not to be


.confused with his son Fred — was “the Daddy of them all!” Some years ago on a


tour of Stonyhurst Col­ lege/ I 'was impressed to see a delightful water colour of our village bear­ ing the signature, E. C aw th o rn e , h an g in g cheek by jowl with oils by several of the Old Masters, a clear indication of the quality of the work and the esteem in which it was held. This particular painting


showed the village in the early morning from a spot on the south .bank of the Calder. Fires had just been lit and over the scene hung a blue haze, so familiar in late spring and early summer. How th e m a s te r


achieved this effect in the most difficult of artistic mediums, I cannot im­ agine, but clearly the young ladies of Miss Ram­ say’s King Street High School' were privileged indeed to have such a highly-talented instructor. I am grateful to all my


correspondents. But for their assistance so much of our local history would never be recorded and, with the passing of the years, would soon be for­ gotten.
