Pub’s musical gala night for Tina fund | calls for red roses

CLITHEROE school­ girl Tina Stevenson is the toast of the town as far as regulars of Whalley Road's Crav­ en Heifer pub are con­ cerned. They packed the

plan was contrary to a policy which seeks to limit development in the open countryside to that needed for agricultural and forestry purposes or other appropriate uses; • and another says


tha t the scheme would result in "significant alterations" which would affect the character of the building to the detri­ ment of the visual amenity of the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

and Mrs Paul and Dawn Stevenson, and sister Joanne (five) launched the event, which includ­ ed entertainment by local bands Time Out and Kickstart, an auc­ tion, which featured a signed Blackburn Rov­ ers FC shirt and football donated by Mr George Hibbert on behalf of Clitheroe Wolves Junior FC, and a raffle. Together they netted

Take care of mobile phones


MOBILE phone owners in the Ribble Valley are being urged to take care of their property by a local police chief. Insp. Bob Ford, of


Clitheroe police, said there is an increasing number of crimes where mobiles are being stolen. The most recent incident had occurred over the weekend, when a man's mobile, valued at £150, was taken after he had left it on a table at the Indian Plaza in Whalley Road, Clitheroe. "There is a lot of this

Possible benefits windfall


A BENEFITS windfall could be on the cards for certain widowers in Lancashire. The county's Welfare Rights Service has asked all


men who became widowers before April, 2001, to check their entitlements. A lump sum payment of at least £1,000 and weekly benefits could be the result of four test cases which begin on December 3rd. "It is important that all widowers act quickly so


that all the necessary paperwork can be completed in time," said County Coun. Niki Penney, cabinet member for communication, information and life­ long learning.

to achieve them are being put in place - some will seek to take the team's usual perfor­ mance forward. General areas such as

clear th a t the agency was investigating the sit­ uation, it was equally clear that major remedi­ al measures were by no means certain. The council had writ­

responded tha t it had "managed to persuade" Lancashire County Council to unblock a major culvert and so, it was hoped, eliminate

MEMBERS of Cli­ theroe's Rotary and Probus Clubs have paid tribute to cen­ tenarian Dr Cyril


Royle. They combined for a


joint lunch attended by 140 people a t Stirk House Hotel, Gisburn.


There were many


expressions of thanks for Dr Royle's contribution to the area. He joined the Rotary Club 42


years ago. A "Desert Island


Discs"-style interview conducted by Rotarian Trevor Roberts proved very effective. It helped


to reveal some of the doctor's past life - and his taste in music, which ranged from Tannhauser to the Mikado. Asked for his bes t


advice after 100 years of life, Dr Royle (pic­ tured) replied: "Never turn down an opportu­ nity."
