A memorable day as villagers enjoyed events to mark Queen's Golden Jubilee


VILLAGERS from Bashall Eaves and Mit- ton turned back the clock for. a .. day. of Queen’s Golden Jubilee events which will long be remembered. The parish council organ­


ised the activity-filled day, basing events around Buck­ thorn Farm, Bashall Eaves.


. The barn was the centre of activities; decorated with flags, bunting and swags of red, white and blue. In the evening, spotlamps and fairy lights adorned the building, while bales of straw provided seating and a temporary stage was erected.' '


The family picnic began


proceedings in the barn, due- to the unpredictable weather. Villagers listened to an inter­ esting talk about the Hodder: Valley while they ate. As the sun came out, the party head­ ed for the riverside. The view was magnificent, unspoilt woods and farmland in every direction and the river mur­ muring below. Quickly that sound was joined by happy shouts and squeals of children running, paddling, splashing and skimming flat stones across the water. ;: ' Music was next on the agenda. A group of local young men with guitars and a creditable lead singer (swinger?) treated everyone to


a medley of Elvis and Beatles songs. — • ■ ■/'■r:


v- The children returned from their wet pursuits to join organised games on the river bank, with races involving


. hoops, beanbags, cones and even Union Flag hats full of. water and golden crowns. There were few tears, but lots of cheers as the older girls helped the younger and every­ one received chocolates at the end.,.

equally memorable as-the party returned in the evening. The music was provided by : Alberill, a group of talented musicians who encouraged everyone to form sets and cir­ cles for a.variety of English country dances. The appetis­ ing smell of a Hog roast per­ vaded the air, the bar was manned by young farmers and supper comprised,pork and stuffing teacakes, with various

impassioned plea


FOLLLOWING an impassioned plea from a farmer, a pro­ posal to erect a farm worker's dwelling on Hillside Farm, Sab­ den, has been appr­ oved by Ribble Val­ ley Borough Council Planning and Devel­ opment Committee. Councillors heard


that the farming of bull beef needed two people to handle animals safely, but as one of the family currently employed'was about to be married, he said that he would have to move off the farm. Coun. Frank Goss


(Sabden) said that there was agricultural justifi­ cation for the applica­ tion. Coun. Rosemary Elms (Bowland) added that as well as having to conform to new health and safety requirements regarding two workers, two people were also

to raise money for a new. wheel­ chair, for one of its own pupils; Rebecca Cockshott. Mrs Bradley herself did,a 10-mile sponsored walk to help pay for the chair that’ costs £5,000. She said: "Rock FM' has told us


that, if we struggle to raise the amount needed, we could apply to their fund for sponsorship.” Our picture shows pupils enjoy­

A N ap p l ic a t io n , to build a coach garage a t Deerpark Service Station, Gisburn, has


>al, owing to possibilities of restrictions to man­ oeuvring on the site and needing to use the A59. Members of Ribble


been deferred -by councillors. •The proposal had been recommended for refus-


needed for animal wel­ fare reasons during calv­ ing and lambing. Coun. Chris Holtom


(Wilpshire) pointed out that the case for two workers on the farm had been made; but there was no evidence tp show that two workers had to live there. He said: "That is the weakness with this case, particularly as one dwelling was sold off." Coun James Rogerson


(Longridge) said that the sale may have been made a long time, ago and that if so, there have


: been changes in farming since then, which, along with the question of affordable housing near the farm, had to be taken into account. Despite a recommen-


datioin for refusal by the Chief Executive, the


planning committee decided the home could be built subject to appro­ priate conditions.

and, owing to the experi­ ence of the operator, there were grounds for further investigation


into safety and manoeu­ vring requirements. -

Farmers’ alert over pollution


RECENT weather con­ ditions have made silage pollution a greater risk than usual,' says the Environment Agency. It is warning farmers


of the dangers and severe penalties likely to follow even a small leachate leakage which can be 200 times more, polluting than raw sewage. The agency advises as much wilting of silage as possi­ ble before it is clamped. Farmers should check equipment and stores and keep an eye on drains and watercourses. . Pollution alerts can be given on 0800 807060.'. ,
