30 Clitheroe Advertiser & Times, August 12th, 2004 Roof plan


is rejected LOCAL planners have rejected an application for an amended roof and an additional support pillar at


. Hollybank, in Pendleton Road, Wiswell. Four letters from nearby


residents expressing con­ cerns about the loss of light to nearby properties were put to a meeting of the bor­ ough council’s Planning and Development Com­ mittee. Planning officer Mr


Colin Sharpe recommend­ ed approval for the scheme, as he considered the altered roof design would have a minimal impact on the adjoining property. However, Coun. Robert


Thompson (Wiswell and Pendleton) and other members of the planning committee suggested refusal on the grounds of loss of visual amenity in the neighbourhood.


Support for Home-start


MEMBERS of Clitheroe Town Council have agreed to give financial support to Home-start Ribble Valley. The voluntary organisa­


tion, which supports fami­ lies with children in their own homes, recently lost vital National Lottery Community funding. The exact amount to be donat­ ed will be decided in the near future. -

Ramblers take trip on scenic railway


A TRIP on the Settle to Carlisle railway began Clitheroe Ramblers' recent outing. The group's 10-mile


high level linear walk, traversing the Inglebor- ough ma^if, began at Rib- blehead Railway Station. Early-morning mist on the mountain tops soon cleared and was followed by sunshine and clear views. Leaving the station,


Quality accolade for Trinity


THE Mayor and Mayoress of the Ribble Valley were on hand to pre­ sent the Trinity Community Part­ nership with a Quality Assurance, Award recently. Childcare @ Trinity, which oper­


ates from the town’s IVinity Centre, is the first club in the town to have achieved such recognition. I t offers an after-school club,


which operates at a number of Clitheroe schools, a holiday club and a Saturday club. Co-ordinators say the award is


down to 12 months’ hard work, resulting in a portfolio of evidence


to present to the quality inspector. 'The portfolio included pho­


tographs of the club’s activities, such as scuba diving, cinema trips and educational visits plus arts and crafts, sports, parachute games, karaoke and other centre-based activities. The experience has helped the


partnership improve quality sys­ tems, including questionnaires to find out what customers want. Adele Hitchen, childcare co-ordi-


nator, said: “Putting together the portfolio has been good experience for us working towards our OFST-


ED inspection. The provision was inspected by OFSTED in March this year and we received a good grade, which is the highest achiev­ able. “We are really proud of the hard


work of everyone involved - the children, parents and staff have been very committed and deserve this award.” Our picture shows the presenta­


tion of the award by the Mayor of the Ribble Valley, Coun. Charles Warkman, and the Mayoress, Mrs Ruth Warkman. (A200704/2)


Ben Brown led the party of 12 along the road towards Selside for about three-quarters of a mile and then along a footpath through the disused quar­ ries of Gauber, now cov­ ered in wildflowers, to New Close. From here there was a


steep climb onto the sum­ mit of Park Fell, where a rest and refreshment stop was taken beside the trig point. From Park Fell, Ingle-


borough can be reached by taking the higher path through the nature reserve and over the summit of Simon Fell. However, an alternative path was fol­ lowed on the northern side


of the wall contouring above Souther Scales Fell, giving splendid views of the limestone pavements below and magnificent views of the steep, precipi­ tous eastern face of Ingle- borough.


This was followed by a


short, sharp climb of some 500 feet, after which the gradient eased off and the summit shelter and trig point were soon reached and lunch taken. The descent was made


over Little Ingleborough to Gaping Gill and then Long Lane track was reached beyond Clapham Bottoms. A gentle incline led up to Sulber Gate, with the eastern flanks of Ingleborough and Simon Fell providing a contrast­ ing view to the western side of the outward jour­ ney. A tea stop was taken overlooking the limestone pavements of Thieves Moss with Pen-y-Ghent in the background. Then it was downhill all the way along Sulber Nick to the railway station at Horton.
