The team is now test-

has been earmarked for closure by Lancashire Coun­ ty Council. It believes the path is "redundant" and so wants to abandon its responsibility for it by clos­

resident for just a year, Mr Siddall (58) had quickly become a popu­ lar community figure through his enthusiastic support of a number of village activities, includ­ ing the May Queen crowning and jubilee cel­ ebrations, as well as sup­ porting future event planning through St Helen's Church, the Playing Fields Group and Waddington Village Club.
