THIS year has seen a historic event, both reli­ gious and civic, at Whalley Parish Church. Coun. Mrs Joyce Holgate is one of two village


representatives on Ribble Valley Borough Council and, as Mayor of the borough this year, chose to hold her civic service at the church with which she has a long connection. More than 300 people packed into the medieval
