Stonyhurst College has been welcomed by officials of Ribble


Valley Borough Council. They recommend next week's


I proposal for a 100 yard by 60 yard pitch with a nine-foot fence and 48-


meeting of the Planning and Devel­ opment Committee .to approve the


I foot floodlights. I As the college grounds are designat­


ed of special national level historic interest, several outside organisations


have to be consulted about the pro­ posal, and some expressed reserva­

mittee says: "Not only will this provi­ sion provide a valuable resource and expansion of facilities for the college,


ble Valley which can be used, when not in use by the college, by members of the public and other sporting bod- ies." The pitch will go at the rear of the main college buildings, surrounded on all sides by established mature wood­ land. There will be two new areas of tree planting, one to help shield a 10- sn


space Car park and three bay coach _


other playing space. The pitch meets the GCE A-level


sports studies curriculum requirement for an outdoor surface usable all year,


and is, in any case, vital to support modern ideas of boarding school and pupil development provision. The screening will overcome problems of
