burst pipes. With schools and the

by two Year 6 pupils. One of the organisers, Kirsty Wright, was taken ill with


an infected appendix and missed the sale. Mr Lowry added:

Kwiksave sign must go


AN internally illuminated poster-size box sign outside Kwiksave, Clitheroe, must be removed, councillors


decided. A retrospective applica­


tion for the sign was refused by Ribble Valley Borough Council Planning Commit­ tee. Members accepted the recommendation of the offi­ cers, who described the sign as "visually intrusive" and


detrimental to the charac­ ter and appearance of the nearby conservation area. The officers were autho­


rised to take enforcement action to secure the removal of the sign, if necessary.
