obtained the signatures of a pro­ poser, seconder and eight assen- tors, all living in the ward, before nominations close a t noon on April 1st. The latest name to be added to


the BNP team is Paul Frankiand (27), a single man employed as a window fitter, who intends to stand in St Mary’s Ward, said BNP spokesman Simon Bennett. The four men named previous­ ly as candidates for the BNP are:


‘Mr Iv an Duxbury (40), a - machine operator; Pete McQuade . (35) single, a refuse operative

A GROUP of 27 ramblers enjoyed a five-mile walk in the south-west' comer of the Ribble Valley. . The walkers, led by Bryan


Dobson, started from Lovely Hall Lane, Salesbury, in bright spring­ time weather and continued into Clayton-le-Dale. . A short stop was made near


Showley Brook. in order, to pin­ point the course of a Roman road which ran from an encampment on Mellor Moor to Ribchester. ■Y From the dale, the walkers con­ tinued in a westerly direction onto the lower slopes of Mellor Moor,; from where outstanding views of Bleasdale, Bowland and Lon- gridge fells could be seen.-..


■ After carefully crossing the A59 they arrived in Osbaldeston, and after travelling north via Robert House Farm th ey took in the


< splendour of the historic stone building of Oxendale Hall, built in 1656 by.Lawrence Osbaldeston. After a re s t in the secluded


Mire Wood, which was coming to life with the new green leaves of the bluebells, the walkers proceed­ ed to Mire Fold and, after again


.crossing th e A59, continued towards Harwood. Fold on their return to Salesbury. ■ The walk next Wednesday will


be led by Allan Richards. Tele­ phone 01200 422865 for more details.
