investigated further. The cost of housing in


the Ribble Valley is believed by 77% of respondents to be too high for first-time buyers and 64% felt that too many houses are being built. Some 85% of peo­ ple stated that housing developments should be linked to the provision of services in advance. T e c h n o l o g i c a l


advances were not missed by the survey, and it was discovered that 52% of people have access to the Internet. However, as it was found that 76% of people over the age of 65 do not have Internet access, it was recommended that seri­ ous consideration must be given at national level to ensure that the growth in Internet usage does not marginalise the older people in the com­ munity. The provision of bet­


ter cinema facilities was mentioned in the survey, along with other com­ ments on sport, culture and leisure from 215 peo­ ple. Inquiries can be made

Airlift drama after crash on the A59


TH E occupants of two vehicles were lucky to escape seri­ ous injury after a col­ lision on the A59 near Barrow. The accident occurr­


ed at the roundabout c lo se to the Pendle V i e w F i s h e r i e s entrance and the west­ bound carriageway was closed for three hours. Emergency services


attended the incident, which involved a new Honda CRV owned by


Greenacre Garage; Cli­ theroe, and a Peugeot 306 estate. A police spokesman


said that it appeared the vehicles were in collision at the roundabout, but travelled some distance further on before coming to rest. He added that the


Honda overturned after apparently crossing a grass verge and striking a kerb following the colli­ sion, and it seemed the driver had been ejected from the vehicle.


Paramedics treated


the three men involved. The condition of the dri­ ver of the Peugeot had to be stabilised while he remained trapped in his car, which was badly damaged. Firefighters removed


the door to his car to free him and he was taken to


Blackburn Royal Infir­


mary. The driver o f the


Honda was airlifted to hospital in Preston by the North-West Air Ambulance, which was called to the scene of the accident. His passenger was taken to hospital at Blackburn. ’


‘Local’ TV drama will be back on the screen later this year


THE BBC drama series "Bom and Bred", which is filmed in Downham, will b e returning to the nation's T V screens later this year. The Ribble Valley village was


recently once again transformed to re-create Ormston in the 1950s, as filming for the second series got under way. Former "EastEnders" star


Michael French and James Bolam once again feature as the


village's father and sons doctors, Arthur and Tom Gilder. Other Ormston favourites


rejoining them for the new series will include: Clive Swift as the vicar, the Rev. Brewer; Maggie Steed as the landlady; and former "Coronation Street" star Denise Welch as mother-of-six Edie McClure. Speaking about the second


series, Jane Tranter, the BBC's Controller of Drama Commis­


sioning, said: "'Born and Bred' performed extremely well on Sun­ day nights on BBC One. it was a big hit with viewers, establishing itself very quickly as a firm favourite, in spite of tough com­ petition from ITV. "I t is what family drama on


BBC One is all about and I am delighted that we are reuniting the same team for the second series with such a beautiful loca­ tion."


All were described as


having sustained cuts and bruising, but injuries were not thought to be life-threatening. Our pictures show

attack on teacher


A M A N who was both employed and staying in Clitheroe during the foot and mouth outbreak has been sentenced to life imprisonment. . Paul M u l l in (28 ) launched a ferocious


and sustained attack with a knife he used for his job on 26-year-old art teacher Lewis Tay­ lor after a dispute over a taxi in Liverpool city centre. During the attack, in


which Mullin was said to have lunged at least 50 times with the lock knife, one of a number of witnesses who tried to help the victim was also stabbed. Liv erpool Crown


Court heard that Mullin had a previous conviction for wounding with intent. Mullin had initially


denied being involved in the offence, but changed his plea to guilty after Judge David Clarke QC ruled admissible DNA evidence linking him with the attack. Merseyside Police


had to spend £35,000 on DNA profiling of blood found at numer­ ous sites at the scene in their bid to prove his guilt. A wallet containing


documents identifying him was dropped at the scene by Mullin. When interviewed, he denied having been there and said he had been in Clitheroe, where he was


working on the removal


and disposal of carcass­ es.


Mullin, o f Pearson


Street, Wavertree, pleaded guilty to caus­ ing grievous b od i ly harm with intent and unlawful wounding. A charge o f attempted murder was dropped. His barrister, Mr


Neville Biddle, said that the incident hap­ pened after Mullin had drunk one-and-a-half bo t t le s o f a strong liqueur. Mullin had been


doing various jobs, but for several months before the incident, which occurred in the early hours of June 14th last year, he had been disposing o f fo o t and mouth animal carcasses, in it ia l ly in Dumfries and Galloway, but lat­ terly in Clitheroe. ' He had been staying


at the White Lion Hotel, Clitheroe, with workmates, and on the afternoon of June 13th decided to go to Liver­ pool to see his girlfriend. She was out and he


went looking for her, which was why he was still wearing his work clothes and had the knife on him. He returned to the hotel the next day and owner Andrea Flynn noticed he had a black eye and stitches in his face. Judge Clarke fixed a


specified period of three years five months before Mullin could apply for parole.


12-month ban for driver


A FINE of £250, an order to pay costs of £40 and a 12-month driving ban were imposed by Blackburn magistrates on Gavin James Whalley (30), of Little- moor Road, Clitheroe, after he admitted driving with excess alcohol.

that Martin Anthony Hughes joined in rowdy celebrations of the win in the town centre. When police tried to calm the situation, Hughes became abusive


towards them and was eventually Hughes (23), of Bowland


Prospect, was bound over in the sum of £100 to keep the peace for six months. A charge of being drunk and disorderly was with­ drawn. Richard Prew (defending) said the people involved in the inci­


dent, at around 6-15 p.m., had earlier watched the England game and all had been drinking to excess. "What was going on was a


rowdy celebration, rather than anything more sinister," said Mr Prew. "M y client accepts that he should not have said what he did."
