Not only does a well-lit house appear more welcoming to the family and friends coming home, it deters bur­ glars and can also make streets and p a th s s a fe r fo r you r family and neighbours.


house.


It is particularly important that lighting is installed at llie rear or side of your house — those areas which are in com­ plete darkness.


Basically there are two choices. You can either buy an ordinary exterior light, which can bo left on all night, or a socuriLy/courtesy lighl.


Leaving an outside light on all night is not expensive (about £2 a year), but for those who prefer not to leave lights on all night, the answer is to purchase a lighting device with a passive infra­ red sensor attached.


This sensor actually detects movement over a certain range and, in reaction, switches the light on. The light then remains on for a pre-set time or until whatever triggered the sensor is no longer detected.


It is most unlikely that your neighbours will o b je ct to your security lights, although it might be a good idea to discuss your plans with them.


Only the bravest of burglars will enter a house he thinks might be occupied. A f te r dark, the sight of a we ll- lit dwelling will send him away to search for a more likely ta rg e t . The dark ness is his friend.


It is also a good idea to leave interior lights on in your home when you are out or on holiday, to provide visual evidence that someone is at home.


You can purchase, at a very low cost programmable light or time switches and, when strategically placed, these can give the impression that someone is moving round the house, providing a deterrent for a woukl-be intruder.


In addition to lighting inside and outside your home, street lighting has a very important role to play in deterring the would-be criminal or vandal.


A Neighbourhood Watch group or resi­ dents’ association is the ideal body to lobby Hie local authority for improved street lighting in your area and it is important that you report any street lighting defects to the local authority promptly. Don’t leave it for someone else to do.


The deterrent value of lighting is clear.


A thief approaching your home can easily be seen, but cannot easily see into your windows or know if you are at home. So switch on to the idea of security.


Free advice and information on the sub­


je c t can be obtained from Clitheroe police station (238 IS), where you will be put in touch with your own local crime prevention officer, PC Gordon Purvos.

LOCAL ramblers have bring about changes to allow of Bowland. O v er 300 p ro te s to r s


attended a mass rally in the Forest of Bowland, at Brennand Great Hill, with a similar protest on land owned by North W e s t Water at Langdcn. Ben Brown, secretary of


the Clitheroe Ramblers, said: “The protests will be kept up until we get firm


assurances from landown­ ers that they will honour a g re em en ts , in c e r ta in instances, to allow access


on their land.” Mr Brown said that the


Trough of Bowland was an important tract of land and the Rambling Association


wanted to see it opened up to walkers. One third of the Trough is owned by the Duke of Westminster, who for the first time had given the protestors per­ mission Lo walk on his


land. “What we really want, to


be able to do is to walk th e r e on th e o th e r 30-1 days of the year,” said Mr Brown. President of the Ram­


blers Association Mr Chris Hall and v e tc ra l i cam­ paigner of the 1932 Kinder Trespass Mr Benny Roth man lent their support to the Brennand Great Hill p ro te s t and MP C h r is S m i t h a d d r e s s e d th e Langden rally. Mr Hall said: “There are


some 02 square miles of u n cu l t iv a ted moorland countryside; the Duke of Westminster owns about a th i rd o f t l i em . T l i i s includes some of the finest l ie a L l ie r m o o r la n d in northern England, where a c c e s s fo r w a lk e r s is negligible. “What this means is that


if you want to enjoy the Duke’s marvellously wild landscapes you must tres­


pass.” The Forbidden Britain


Day, which also featured a se r ie s o f ev en ts nation­ wide, heard Mr Hall plead for the removal of “pri­ v a te ” n o tice s from the Duke’s land. “Most people most of


the time won’t trespass, so the ‘private’ notices, the g am e k e e p e r s and th e absence of public paths are an effective barrier. “He can dig up the ’pri­

pleaded with the Duke to adopt an attitude similar to North West Water. “North West Water is


also a major landowner in the F o r e s t o f Bowland. But in s ta rk contrast to the Duke of Westminster, North WesL W a te r has stated in a le t te r - to the Ramblers that it welcomes walkers to its land,” said Dr Eastwood.

t a k e s s e a t THE eighth Bishop of Bradford was enthroned at Bradford Cathedral on Saturday afternoon, in a rich pageant of fanfares, processions and music, some of which was written specially for


the occasion. During the one-and-a-
