A pollution control officer from the authority


inspected the brook and found it to be severely pol­ luted at one point, but was clean and uneontnminated 500 metres downstream. The pollution was traced


to the defendant’s farm, where it was discovered


that the effluent had over­ flowed from a tank. Mr Smith said the tank


was estimated to have emitted <1,000 gallons of effluent, uL 13 times the pollution level of crude domestic sewage. Me said the pollution


control officer described the farm as “ lacking and cavalier in its approach” to the incident. Mr Anthony Hodgson,

Nutlall was previously in partnership with his sick brother and elderly sister. At the time of the incident he was running the farm on his own and was tinder .very great pressure. The incident had been


caused by very heavy rainfall and blocked man holes. The rain had been unable to drain away and had seeped into his tank, causing the offending overflow. Mr Hodgson told the

CLITHEROE TOWN COUNCIL is clamping down on allotment holders who let their plots go to rack and ruin. A meeting of the council decided to give the


offending plot holders until the end of July to shift the weeds, after hearing that some are in a “dis­ graceful state." Conn. John Cowgill, a member of the council's


allotments committee, said: "A recent inspection of the allotments revealed most of them to be well cared for and yielding high quality produce, blit some were in a disgraceful state.” The meeting was told that, because of the


growth of weeds and grass, such allotments are affecting those on either side. Colin. Cowgill said: “ I f necessary, the plot


holders should be asked to vacate the allotment and the plot subsequently sprayed with weed killer." After hearing that the offending plot holders


have already received warning letters, council­ lors decided to give them until the end of the month to sort out their allotments — or leave.

TH E R E are no plans for the North West Regional Health Authority’s medium secure unit to be based at Calderstones Hospital after the year


2000. That was the clear mes­


sage from the hospital’s general manager, Ml- Jim


Abbott, when he spoke to councillors in Clitheroe about Calderstones’ appli­ cation to become a self- managing NHS Trust. Whatever the outcome,


bers ol Kibble Valley Council’s Public Works and Health Committee, it also became clear that there would be no guaran­ tee of job security locally for many employees. Jobs would be created,


he said, blit they could be within several smaller units in different parts of the region. The units would be controlled by a centre which would not necessarily be based at Calderstones. Most of the residents in


the medium secure unit were from areas such as Wigan, Stockport, Black­ pool and the Manchester area. The hospital would try to take the service as near to the people as possible. At present, the “ chal­


lenging behaviour unit” had 111 patients from throughout the region, but that in itself presented problems in that families lost contact and many had to travel a considerable distance to visit. Asked about the policy


regarding staff currently living in hospital houses,


the h o sp ita l, w h i c h employs around 1,240 staff and has 050 patients, is still on stream to close in eight years. During his talk to mem­


Mr Abbott said as far as


he was aware, staff would still have the right to use them beyond the year 2000. They had security of tenure and would be able to buy them once they became redundant for hospital use. “Why have we been con­


sulted so late?” asked Conn. Bert Jones (Clith­ eroe). “ I f you are already doing such an excellent


job, why is there a need for trust status?”


major political parties agreed that institutionali­ sation was no longer acceptable. Anyone who thought otherwise, he said, should spend a week in Calderstones as a patient. “ Living with 15 other


Mr Abbott said all three


people, all trying to use the same facilities, is not the model for the future. We are going to make that model cease to exist in eight years. During that time we are going to make the service as good as possible.” Coun. Jones warned of


the problems of resettle­ ment within the commu­ nity without the necessary back-up facilities. “Until these centres of


excellence are built, we need to have an assurance that places like Calder- stones and Brockhall will remain open. Those people need a better life when


they come out.” Coun. Frank Dyson


(Clitheroe) asked what would happen to the land


and buildings, including


213 acres at Calderstones. Mr Abbott said the


plans were to put the medium secure unit, which was based in Chestnut Drive and the accommoda­ tion along the frontage into the trust. The rest would be leased for eight years, after which il would re v e r t to the health authority.

DESPITE wet weather, a cream tea afternoon held on Saturday at Clitheroe United Reformed Church hull, was well attended. It raised over £200 towards the Bible Society,


an organisation which sends Billies to under-de­ veloped countries and is supported by all Clitheroe churches. A cake stall with lots of home-lmking did


good business, as did the bring-and-buy stall.
