TRACING HER ROOTS AGAIN — THANKS TO HOLIDAY WIN


FOR many y e a rs , Sheila Shaw has been tracing her roots — until, unfortunately, her search came to a halt last year and she


could go no further. Now she can continue,


because her husband, Gor­ don, has won first prize in the Friends of Pendle County Primary School grand celebration draw. The prize, donated by


retirement apartment spe­ cialists McCarthy and Stone, was a £700 holiday at the resort of the win­ ner’s choice. ■ , Mrs Shaw is now plan-


ning a t r ip to New Orleans, as some of her family emigrated there last century. She had been planning the trip for some time, but is now looking forward to tracing mem­ bers of the Brennand family, who originally lived in the Dunsop Bridge area. About 2,500 tickets


were sold for the draw', to raise funds for the school, which has built up some close links with the resi­ dents of Well Court. Our photograph shows,


from the left, back: Mrs Jean Wrathman (represen­ tative of McCarthy and S to n e ) , Mr Graham Beards (financial director of McCarthy and Stone), Mr Shaw, Mrs Shaw and Mr David Harrison (head­ master of Pendle School).


SPEEDING FINE


A RIMINGTON man was fined £45 and had his driv­ ing licence endorsed with three penalty points by Reedley magistrates after pleading guilty by letter to an offence of speeding. Prosecuting, Mr Les


when asked to account for his speed, said he had been talking to his mother and had not noticed he was exceeding the limit. He offered no mitigation in his letter to the court.


Davies said that police checked the speed of a Range-Rover being driven on the M65 at Nelson by Frank Thomas Clark Gar­ diner (53), of Red Cottage, to be between 84 and 86 m.p.h. He was stopped and,

Intrepid local globe-trotter dies at 86


A CLITHEROE resident whose belief in the saying “where there’s a will there’s a way” took her all over the globe, has died, aged 86.


Mrs Annie Cole­


man’s advancing years failed to stop her trav­ elling all over the world and at the age of 79 taking a folding stool to London to watch the wedding celebrations of Prince Charles and Lady


Diana Spencer. Mrs Coleman died in


Clitheroe Hospital, having spent the last few years of her life at The Croft Rest Home in Whalley. Formerly of Chester


Avenue, she was born in Huddersfield, moving to Clitheroe with her parents at an early age. She attended Clitheroe


Royal Grammar School and, following her mar­ riage to the late Mr Her­ bert Suttcliffe Coleman, lived in Cardigan Avenue. The couple moved to


Accrington when Mr Cole­ man took over as manager o f t h e B r o a d o a k Printworks. After the death of her


husband in the late 1950s, Mrs Coleman returned to Clitheroe to live in Park Avenue. A member of Accring­


ton Inner Wheel for more than 40 years, at the age of 80 she was involved in a dash to Paris to attend the international conference, after missing the coach from East Lancashire. A sp e c ta to r at the


Queen’s .Coronation in 1953, she was an avid admirer of the Royal family and in 1981, aged 79, decided to make the trip to London, hoping to catch a glimpse of Prince Charles and Lady Diana after their wedding. She enjoyed playing


bridge and was a former member of Waddington W I .

Coun. Mrs Sheila Maw said residents felt Whalley was in danger of losing its village status. “There has been a tre

will lose its historical sta­ tus and become almost a small town. We could be at the start of seeing the end of this historical village.” Coun Maw said resi

This site is in a beautiful area, if you decide it should go through then its future must be on everyone’s mind. I f there is to be building on this site, it has to be an attribute and not a detriment.” Coun. Chris Holtom

directed by the Govern­ ment to provide certain areas of land for housing and industry. “ Had the hospital
