Leaflet for discussion


CLITHEROE Town Council has passed on a lea f le t about nuclear power to the Ribble Valley Council — the area health and safety authori­ ty — for discussion. The leaflet was issued


by the Central Electricity Generating Board to reas­ sure people after the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Station disaster in Russia. No action was taken on


Coun. Bert Jones’ sugges­ tion that the council should write to the CEGB and the Government, asking that no more nuc­ lear power stations be built anywhere until more research has been carried out to ensure that nuclear waste disposal is made safe.

Extension to garage


AN application for a garage extension and canopy at 10 Moorland Road," Langho, has been given the go-ahead, de­ spite objections from nearby residents. The Ribble Valley


Council's Development Sub-committee was told that three letters and a petition signed by four re­


application was a revised submission which ex­ cluded the projection of the canopy beyond the front wall of the house. It was considered that the proposal was now accept able.


sidents had been received objecting to the proposal on amenity grounds. Members heard that the

le a d e r Mr David Sharp made the pre­ sentations.


M cyclist had no licence


A CLITHEROE youth who was fined £25 for riding a motor cycle with­ out an excise licence told the town's magistrates that he had been sur­ prised to receive the summons.


Stafford Linton Linford


(17), of Kenilworth Drive, said he had only had the bike five days when he was stopped by police of­ ficers in Wellgate. He told the Bench that he was having difficulties in ob­ taining the log book, which he needed before he could apply for the excise licence.


But it was pointed out


to Linford that these dif­ ficulties did not permit him to drive the machine and he should have been well aware of the facts.


Linford told the court


that he had since obtained an excise licence and had had it backdated to cover the start of his ownership


Ban for driver who refused breath test


A READ motorist was disqualified from driv­ ing for two years when magistrates heard she had refused a police breath test after causing an accident in tne village. Mr Alastair Nisbet,


p r o s e c u t in g ,


Clitheroe magistrates that Maureen Mary Redpath (55), of Pendle House, George Lane, had been turning left out of Camp­ bell Road into Whalley Road when she crossed the centre of the carriage­ way and struck a car being driven in the oppo­ site direction. When police officers ar­


told


rived at the scene, she was staggering about in the road, her eyes glazed and breath smelling of alcohol. She refused to provide


a specimen of breath there and also when taken to Padiham Police Station. Mr Bill Greenwood, de­


fending, said his client had been visiting the Conser­ vative Club in Read. As she turned into Whalley Road, she had directed too much attention to traffic coming from the right, because road works and parked vehicles out­ side a nearby chip shop obscured her vision in that direction. The a c c id en t had


shaken her and been the cause of her subsequent behaviour. The offence was her


first in 30 years of motor­ ing and any disqualifica­


tion would cause hard­ ship, he said, because public transport was not readily available in Read. It would also affect others as his client spent a great deal of time in voluntary work. In addition to the dis­


qualification for failing to provide breath specimens at the police station, she was fined £200. She was also fined £20 for failing to provide a specimen at Read and £50 for driving without due care and at­ tention.


Ready for


new season MEMBERS of Ribbles dale Camera Club sat down to supper at the Edisford Bridge Inn as an opener to their winter programme. They w e r e shown


natural history slides taken by West Bradford photographer Bert Hoi gate and presented by Roland Frankland. At another meeting, Mr


Dowriham, was the set­ ting for the wedding of Miss Julia Diane Margaret Ingram and Mr Christ­ opher David Swarbrick. The bride, a weaver, is


the elder daughter of Mr and Mrs Andrew Ingram, of Woone Lane, Clitheroe. The bridegroom, an


estate worker, is the younger son of Mr and Mrs Robert Swarbrick, of Top Row, Downham. The bride, given away


by her father, wore a crinoline-style gown of white sequmned lace and tulle, trimmed with a pink bow. Her embroidered cathedral veil was held in place by a pearl headdress and she carried a cascade bouquet of pink roses and carnations. B r id e sm a id s were


Marie Ingram, the bride's sister and Fiona Pritt. Marie wore a crinoline- style dress of pink and white lace and carried a posy of pink roses and Fiona wore a white organ­ za hooped dress trimmed with pink and carried a basket of silk flowers. They both wore headdres­ ses of pink and white fresh flowers. The best man’s duties


were carried out by Mr Steven Knowles and Mr Christopher Stone, ushers were Mr Kenneth Swar­ brick, the bridegroom's brother, and Mr Steven Barrett, the bridegroom's b r o th e r - in - law , and groomsman was Mr Geoff Allen. The ceremony was per­
