school on the map. Work to build a brand new school in


the village is due to start this month, once a couple of funding matters have been finalised. Then the wait will finally be over for staff and children from St Mary's RC School. The present building in Pendle


Street East opened in 1877 but started life as a row of houses and


was once a church. Within weeks, work should start on


the playing field off Watt Street to


build a replacement. While work is under way, playtime for pupils will be movea lo uie nuime, and headteacher Mrs Tina Bradley

Area’s teenagers urged to take ‘Time O u t’ for sports activities


AS the summer time approaches, teenagers


in the Ribble Valley are being invited to take "Time Out" at Roefield Leisure Centre with a packed sp o r ts p ro ­ gramme especially for


them. The Time Out scheme is


the brainchild of Roefield manager Mr Tony Rodia, who felt that there was a


lack of recreational provl sion for young people in the


area. He submitted an applica­


tion tor funding from Com- municare NHS Health Trusts' Discover Physical Activity Project, which seeks to promote such schemes, and he received a £1,000 grant as a result. The Leisure Centre will


be opened exclusively for youngsters aged between

"EXCESSIVE size and design" has led to the refusal of a two-storey extension to a property in


Ribchester. . Both the parish council and planning officials felt that


the proposal for a lounge, extension, garage facilities and internal alterations at Ashmoor House, in Stoneypte Lane, would have a great effect on the ch^acter of both the existing building and area in which it is set. A report submitted to Ribble Valley Borough Council s


Planning and development Committee said: "The propos­ al is rather large in size and, in design terms, looks like a totally separate building rather than forming part of the


original structure. "Negotiations have tried to seek a better design a


smaller scheme, but no success has been agreed with the applicant's agent."


Borough councillors refused the application on the grounds of the planning officer's recommendations.
