way seems to have been done by stealth and I think the ratepayers and residents of the Ribble Valley, through whose area this proposed walk will pass, are entitled to a full disclosure as to why they are now presented with a fait accompli. To what extent have


been made by Ribble Valley Borough Council and the parish councils, through which the way


the public have no legiti­ mate right of access. Many of the persons

who will use this proposed long walk will only walk it in sections and will use cars to get to their start­ ing points. This will raise serious parking problems at certain strategic points such as Grindleton Bridge

places where traffic prob­ lems arise and I under­ stand on good authority that ramblers’ cars are al­ ready being parked in the Spread Eagle Hotel pri­ vate car park, which is intended for the use of hotel patrons only. The members of the

A COMPANY which failed to furnish VAT re­ turns for the last quarter of last year was hit by

ever, that the character of York Street is based on a mix of residential and commerical properties and therefore the business is in no way out of place. In fact, the premises are themselves between two shops and, historically, a cafe-type development is no novelty to this end of the street. In addition, when oppo­


nents take me to task for jeopardising “amenity”

COUNCILLORS and offi­ cials of th e former Clitheroe Rural District Council, which disap­ peared in the local gov­ ernment reorganisation of 1974, held their annual reunion at Hillock Farm Restaurant, Old Langho,


on Friday. Former chairman Mr


Frank Clayton and his wife, of Chatbum, acted


as hosts. The staff side was rep­


resented by former coun­ cil clerks Mr Alan Butt and Mr Tom Rushton, while ex-councillors Mrs Mary Brown (Aighton,


Bailey and Chaigley) and Mr W. R. Spensley (Chat- burn) attended on behalf of the elected representa­
