Pub plan refused
A PLAN to build a family room at the Buck Inn, Grindleton, by roofing across from the main building to the existing toilet block, has been given the thumbs-down. In considering the plan,
the Ribble Valley Coun cil’s Development Sub committee was told that a letter had been received objecting to the plan on amenity, car parking and traffic problem grounds. It was felt that the
proposal represented an over-intensive develop
ment of the site in that there was insufficient off- street parking and man oeuvring space to cater for the existing and prop osed increased floor space
in the pub. In gratitude
A HAND-MADE doll’s house is to be auctioned fre e o f ch a rg e b y Clitheroe’s Hothersall, Forrest and McKenna au ctioneers, in aid of the local cancer research fund for Christies Hospital. Manchester. The donor, Mr Bob
Kerr (73), of Rawtcnstall, made the elaborate toy when he was a joiner. It will be auctioned on dune 5th, to show his gratitude to the hospital, which cured him of cancer of the
throat.
