Castle Cement application


to be opposed


AN objection to Castle Cement's application to burn Cemfuel permanently on its dry process kiln 7 is being prepared by Friends of the Earth. The pressure group


alleges that the Environ­ ment Agency has not super­ vised the company ade­ quately in the past and says that the new application is a stern test of its approach. The agency has to decide on the application within


four months. Castle Cement has burnt


coal on the kiln for some years until a trial using Cemfuel started last year. As reported last week,

event organisers had also aimed to provide a variety of free activities. A coconut shy, tombola, bar, tug-of- war, pony rides, face paint­ ing and bouncy castle were among the entertainment provided by the residents' association. Following the success of


this year's fete, organisers say they would love to hold another one in the future in the hope that it will help build the village communi­ ty which is beginning to develop at Brockhall Vil­ lage, as well as providing children with an opportuni­ ty to enjoy themselves in a safe environment.

the trials were successful and so the company wants its operating conditions varied. This would allow a fuel mixture comprising, in thermal output terms, 60% coal and 10% Cemfuel to be burnt. But the composition of the liquid fuel may be different to that previously used on the two other kilns. Friends of the Earth is

Castle Cement says that

Can yon help identify this mystery woman?


A MAN from Cumbria who is attempting to compile his fami­ ly tree has discovered that he has


roots in the Ribble Valley. In the course of his research Mr


Denis Magean, of Workington, has learnt that his great-great-grandmoth­


er, Roseanne Rourke, lived in Clitheroe. He believes that she died in 1916 while living with her son-in-law Mr J. Winkley at 7, Railway View. This week he contacted,our newspa­


per in a bid to find out more about the members of his family who made their home in the Ribble Valley.


He also enclosed this photograph m


the hope that our readers will be able to help him solve the mystery and work out who the woman is. The only clue Mr Magean has is that the picture was taken at Hargreaves Photogra­ phers, Clitheroe. but he believes that the two families must have kept in touch as the photograph turned up in Workington. Anyone with information about the


Rourkes, or anyone who recognises the woman in the photograph, can contact Mr Magean at 16 Moorclose Road, Harrington, Workington, CA14 5LB.

of quality donated goods. With the help of a few local tradesmen, Manageress Mary Codd and her team of volunteers set about transforming the shop layout on Monday 24th July.The main task was to provide customers with more space to browse for bargains in more comfortable


surroundings. “It was very hard work, but well worth the effort. The shop looks


fantastic,” said Mary. “When we re-opened on the 29th July, all the customers praised the new look and loved the bright colour scheme. With these compliments buzzing around, the shop achieved record takings for a single day’s trading as customers snapped up the


bargains on offer. With all money raised in the shop used to help fun Age Concern
