that the change of the for­ mer launderette was not a planning matter, but more a matter for market forces to resolve. In tu rn in g down the

U R RY — TOM L IN SO N


TWO former Clitheroe Royal Grammar School pupils, who both graduated with honours from Hull Univer­ sity, were married at St Nicholas’s Church, Sabden. The bridegroom, Mr Nicholas Philip Urry, the only


son of Mr and Mrs George Urry, of Laneside Farm. Whalley Road, Sabden, studied applied physics. The bride, Miss Karen Lorraine Tomlinson, the


older daughter of Mr and Mrs Peter Tomlinson, of Bridge Close, Clitheroe, obtained a degree in lan­ guages, after studying in Germany for part of her course. Both are management consultants in the City of


London, where the bridegroom works for Banking Systems Computers and the bride is employed at


Computers Software. Among their guests were a Canadian couple cele­


brating their 53rd wedding anniversary. Mr and Mrs J . A. Pickup, of Toronto, are the great uncle and aunt of tiie bridegroom. The bride, who was given away by her father,


wore an ivory silk gown with a hand-embroidered bodice designed by her and sewn by her mother-in- law. The gown featured dramatic layered frills on puffed sleeves and a full skirt decorated at the back with embroidered hows forming a train. She had a full-length bouffant scalloped and pearl-beaded veil with a silk, crystal and pearl-beaded headdress to match the gown. She carried a shower bouquet of fresh cream roses, lilies, freesia and ivy leaves to match the hand-embroidery on the bodice and bows of the gown. Bridesmaids were June Room, the bride’s sister,


Janet Wright, Alexandra McBreen, the bridegroom's niece, and Lindsey McBreen and Alison Urry-Mor- ton, the bridegroom’s sisters. Page boy was James McBreen. the bridegroom’s


nephew. The older bridesmaids wore wild silk striped


dresses in rose pink, pale blue, grey and ivory, with ankle-length full skirts and large hows at the back. The youngest had a rose pink wild silk scalloped overdress with striped bows and a striped underdress to match the other bridesmaids’ outfits. They all car­ ried tied bunches of matching fresh flowers and had matching silk headdresses. Best man was Mr John Sweet and ushers were

' ^


Kim Foudy submitted th a t licensing legislation laid down as recently as 19S3 was ade­ quate for the centre’s needs. “In my submission this appli­


cation is an attempt to circum­ vent the licensing regulations of 1983 and would lead to the in e v i ta b le bandwagon for others to jump on, although I have every sympathy with the motives that have allowed the applicants to pursue it.” For the applicants, Mr Ley-


bottom, the officer responsible for supervising licensed prem­ ises in East Lancashire, said he had never come across such an application before. I t would cause an administrative night­ mare for him, as three different authorities were involved — the licensing magaistrates at Clitheroe, the Blackburn police office, where he was based, and


land claimeci that there was a distinction between the centre and other groups — and that the application did not create a precedent. The building was a new and impressive hall built for the good of the community and run by self-disciplined peo­ p le . The fo u r o c c a s io n a l licences already in existence were disproportionate to the needs of tne community.

TWO Clitheroe men were bound over to keep the peace for a year when they ap p e a red a t C lith e ro e Magistrates’ Court. Wayne Borcham (18), of


Albemarle S t re e t , and S c o t t McTear (19), of N ew to n S t r e e t , w e re bound over in the sum of £200. Mrs M a rg a re t Duck­


worth, prosecuting, said that police were called to a ho u se in W e s t View, Clitheroe, after a witness had gone to bed and heard loud voices outside. The defendants were asked to leave the area, but they were abusive and were subsequently arrested. Mr David Parkinson, in


mitigation, said both men denied being abusive, but
