A TOP wine award has brought an extra sparkle to a vintage Clitheroe high-street shop.


England is the long-estab­ lished family firm of D. Byrne and Co, fine wine and spirit merchants, of King Street. Mr George Byrne and


Toast of the North of


sons Andrew (34) and Phi­ lip (32) have carried off a regional award for all­ round service and their, shop is tops in range, qual­ ity and value for money. So says the country’s


le ad in g c o n n o is seu r , “Which Wine Guide,” and now the Byrne family will have the kudos of seeing their name alongside the country’s top wine mer­ chants in the consumer publication’s new guide. The business, which


started in a very small way 110 y e a rs , ranks among such leading names


as Tanners Wines, of the Midlands, and Lay and Wheeler, of East Anglia. “It gives us a tremen­


"Couples come from


dous amount of satisfac­ tion to see our name alongside th e irs ,” said Andrew, great-grandson of the shop’s founder. Andrew recalled that


the business began in 1879, during Queen Vic­


toria’s Silver Jubilee year. In those days, his great­ grandfather, Denis Byrne, stocked only five or six dif­ ferent wines and supplied the local gentry. Now the business stocks


1,500 different wines from France; Germany, Spain, California, Australia and other places, and draws customers from all social groups and from as far away as London.

Appeal given a lift


A GROUP of students from the Clitheroe area hitched a lift to raise money for the Roefield Leisure


Centre appeal. Their efforts raised £400, half of which was donated


to the appeal and half to the Rain Forest Foundation. During a presentation at the Cross Keys, Clith­


eroe. the students presented a cheque for £200 to Roefield committee member and Clitheroe Royal Grammar School teacher Mr Rob Smitton. Mick Hepworth and Michael McLaughlin were run­


ners-up in the contest, reaching Portsmouth, pipped at the post by Richard Mellon and Anne Jackson, who arrived in Bude, Cornwall. Mr Smitton, receiving both cheques, said the two


causes were both of local and international impor­ tance. “It is good to see the youth of Clitheroe doing something for the Roefield Leisure Centre, which is really wanted by the people of the Ribble


with Richard and Anne (seated, front), Michael, Simon Butterfield, Alec Billington, Neil Coles and

MAS T ERPIECE KITCHENS POTS’ MORE CASH


CASH is coming in thick and fast for the Roefield Appeal as the Christmas deadline draws near for the £70,000 the scheme needs. Over £700 was given to the appeal at two presentations in Clitheroe public


£200, handed over in the White Lion pub, which were respectively the prof­


houses last week. First came two cheques for £300 and


its from the Pendle Ski Club open day and the proceeds from a disco at the Roefield Barn Badminton Club. On the same evening, a cheque for


£204 was presented in the Waggon and Horses pub, the proceeds of pool


matches held on two alternate nights there and also at the Higher Buck Inn, Waddington.


Pictured above, about to pot the


money raised in the pool matches, are (from the left) Vinny Gilmour, Geoff Newsam, Rob Smitton and Richard Greenwood, chairman of the Roefield Appeal Committee.

Praise for rail group


MEMBERS of Ribble Val­ ley Rail received a put on the back for their “great effo rts” in persuading British Rail to reopen the Blackburn-Hellifield line for reg u la r passenger


traffic. The praise came at the


Ribble Valley Council meeting from Coun. Barrie Parker (Clitheroe), who said he hoped there would be “whistle-stop” services along the line, particularly a t B i l l i n g t o n a n d Henthorn. H e t h o u g h t th e


reopening of th e line would be a great boon to the Ribble Valley. I t would coincide with rede­ velopment of the former Clitheroe Auction Mart site for commerce and tourism and would serve the local community, as well as bringing extra visi­ tors to the area.

Easy way to explore Pendle route


MEMBERS of Clitheroe Civic Society walked an amazing 45 miles in 45 minutes at their meeting — without suffering short­ age of breath! They were taken on an


illus trated tour of the newly developed Pendle Way, a walk in eight sec­ tions which covers the boundary areas of Pendle Borough Council. The Pendle Way, open­


ed in 1987, was a joint venture by the borough council, Pendle Enterprise Trust, Pendle Heritage Centre and the Manpower Services and Countryside Commissions. Slides clearly illustrated


and linked fascinating views, architecture and h is to r ic a l p o in ts of interest. Society members heard


it had proved to be a very worthwhile effort and Rib­ ble Valley residents were urged to explore the route. The first section begins


at the Pendle Heritage Centre, Barrowford, and covers seven miles to Bar- noldswick. Leaflets giving clear instructions based on Ordnance Survey maps can be obtained at each starting point. The society’s meeting on


December 4th, starting at 7-30 p.m. in Clitheroe Par ish Hall, will be a photo­ graphic quiz of Clitheroe and other places in the Ribble Valley. Members of the public


will be welcome to try out their local knowledge and sampie mince pies baked by society members. The Civic Society has
