Public protest snookers Keystreet man's bid for licensed pool hall


Proposer wanted to add to Clitheroe s attractions, but residents objected


PLANS to open a licensed pool hall in Clitheroe have been pocketed by


their proposer following a backlash of public protest. An application to sell them and they are extreme­ ly popular. I want to add to


alcohol, due to be heard by Blackburn magistrates, has been withdrawn by Mr Phil Knight, co-proprietor of


North Street's teeri venue, StreetCred. He had wanted to convert the back half of the premises into a mem-


bers-only pool hall, fitted with five competition stan­ dard pool tables and a licensed bar, but a wave of protests from neighbouring residents has snookered his intentions. Explained a disappointed


Mr Knight: "Clitheroe used to have a licensed pool hall on what is now the site of Tesco's supermarket. All neighbouring towns have


Ruptured gas main closes village road


THE main road through Grindleton was closed for nearly 12 hours on Friday afternoon and evening. A gas main ruptured


under the road, near to Southfield Drive, and the leak was so serious that fire­ fighters from Clitheroe had to stand by for much of the time as repairs were carried out. I t is believed tha t con­


tractors are laying new pipe work in the vicinity. Fire-fighters stood by


during repairs from 1 p.m. until around 11-30 p.m. Concerned residents served welcome cups of tea to those who had been called out and, to their delight and surprise, received a letter thanking them this week. Said one of the residents


of Grindleton Road: "They were extremely polite. We were surprised th a t it is unusual for the fire-fighters to receive cups of tea. You could not have met nicer people and the le tte r we received thanking us for the tea tells you the. calibre of the people they, are."


Winners at the bridge club


THE winners of the Howell Movement a t Clitheroe Bridge Club on Monday evening were Mr and Mrs R. Ward, equal second were Mrs M. Butler and Mr P. Roche, Mr J. Pawlicki and Mr J. Renton. Thursday's winners were:


NS, Mr D. Mortimer and Mrs J. Martindale, Mrs B. Tatton and Mr J. Renton. EW, Mrs M. Phillips and Col M. Jeffery, Mr G. and Mr C. Pollard.


Window damage


DAMAGE valued at £250 was caused to a double glazed window in De Lacy Street, Clitheroe, when an object was thrown at it. Police are investigating.


Clitheroe's attractions and saw the licensed pool hall as a way of doing this." Yet a petition handed to


Mr Knight, who also owns Clitheroe's town centre Keystreet Music and Dance Bar business, showed that StreetCred's neighbours did not share his view th a t changes to the currently alcohol-free venue, which opened last year as a meet­ ing place for youngsters, would be for the better. With names collected by


local town councillor Bob Lightfoot, it expressed their fears of the possibility of alcohol-fuelled increased


noise and nuisance from the premises. Said Mr Knight: "Entry to the pool hall would have been strictly controlled. The neighbour­ hood is a commercial area in any case, so is not the qui­ etest, yet I believe if the people protesting would just come into StreetCred and see the facilities we have provided for the youngsters, talk to their parents, who appreciate that Clitheroe now has this meeting place, and look at the area we want to con­ vert, they would under­ stand th a t our pool hall plans would not cause them any disruption, but would be an asset for Clitheroe."

Fancy footwork at dance workshop


| AGILITY, balance and artistry combined to produce an afternoon of fancy footwork for Year Five youngsters at | Whalley CE Primary


School. The children took part in


a workshop run by mem­ bers of the RJC Dance


[ company. And, following the workshop, the dancers performed their own work "Vibe" in school. The multi-media presen­


tation involved computer graphics, live dance and


video clips. The dance workshop was the second activity which


had taken place in the school as part of a special Millennium project, brought together by the Lancashire Rural Touring Network in partnership with On Tour North York­ shire and North Pennine Highlights. Members of RJC Dance


and a storytelling trio called "Offbeat Tales"/who had worked with Year Six chil­ dren the previous week, had visited the Ribble Valley at the invitation of the village hall committee. "All credit to them for having the vision to bring these people to Whalley,'' said school headteacher Mr Brian Beresford.
