Regulars’ plea for reopening of pub which was heart of the community
by Julie Frankland
A HOMELESS darts team and shocked regulars are appealing for the reopening of their loca l Clitheroe pub, which they claim shut "with out warning" and, destroyed
the heart of their community. | The pub, the Black Horse Inn, which served residents of Pimlico, now stands dark and empty.
According to regulars who turned out to cheer on the darts team in a Monday evening fixture, licensee Mr John Willacy had posted a notice on the wall announcing that the pub was to close with last
orders. Said 76-year-old Mr Robert
Patchett, of Chatburn Old Road: "As a pensioner, one of the few plea sures left in life was to go across the road to my local and have a couple of drinks. Not only was this good in itself, it gave me the opportunity to
have a chat with friends and other local people. In a way, I now feel as if I've had my arm chopped off." Added Mr Patchett, who ran the

This was thrown out by councillors, who argued that the Black Horse Inn deserved protec tion as a community facility. No repeat application has yet been submitted. Despite efforts to con tact him, Mr Willacy was unavail able for comment.

long held the view that p rom p t action on vandal
ism reduces the chance of follow-on vandalism. "Friends of Stations, as a
group, is proud of our sta tions, and will continue to keep the stations clean and tidy, but we need support from First North-Western." Mr Martin McKenzie,
spokesman for First North- Western Trains, said they were disappointed by Mr Haworth's comments. They had introduced a
senior manager with the specific responsibilities of route manager, and he had worked hard to make improvements. The appointment was so successful they had copied the move for the Oldham
Loop. "The route manager will make representations to
I Ribble Valley Rail to try to resolve any outstanding
I issues," he added. • Another article in the
