WORK has started on a major resurfacing project on the main route through Read and Simon-
stone. The A671 Whalley Road closed
on Monday between Portfield Bar and New Marls Woods, for approxi mately seven weeks. The road will be resurfaced and a
special skid-resistant treatment will be laid at Devil’s Elbow. This is a well-known accident blackspot where 16 accidents
recently have resulted in very seri
ous or fatal injuries. Major strengthening work on
en and road realignment works to m a k e
Read New Bridge will be undertak Devil’s Elbow safer mil also
be a big feature of the work, which also includes improved signs and
road markings. Whalley Road mil be closed until
Sunday, September 5th. A diver sion will be in place and will take motorists via the A680 Accrington Road and Whalley Road, Clayton- le-Moors, A678 Burnley Road and. A6068 Padiham bypass.
A county council spokesman said-
“This is a major project that will result in a high-quality road surface and many road safety features. “The majority of the work has
been scheduled for the school holi days.
j “We expect there to be less traffic •
on the roads at peak times during: this period.
“I t is probable that there will be'
delays during the work, so we are' asking motorists to be patient.” The scheme is designed to cut'
down on the number of accidents on that stretch of road.

Clitheroe Advertiser & Times, July 22nd, 2004 5 Exciting plans for Brockhall
INNOVATIVE plans for the final phase of the development of Brock- hall Village have been submitted to Ribble Valley Borough Coun cil.
A village hall, swim
ming and gymnasium club, 14 live/work build ings, 24 apartments and two areas of open space are proposed. The live/work concept
is one which is already being successfully pur sued elsewhere. At
Brockhall the 14 homes proposed will each have an office annexe of 50 square metres and be designed for people who want to run their busi nesses from home. The application has
been submitted jointly by Brockhall Village Residents' Association and Brockhall Village Ltd. O For full details,
read next week's Clitheroe Advertiser and Times.
TWO Ribble Valley mums have raised a staggering £4,600 for the North West Air Ambulance. Mrs Eileen Sumner (37), of Warwick
Drive, Clitheroe, and Mrs Joanne Green (36) , of Katy Lane, Waddington, had their feet firmly on the ground when they took part in the London Marathon in April this year. Despite having to look after five chil
dren and working full-time, the duo trained extensively for the 26.2 mile run and finished in a time of four hours and two minutes. And their training certainly paid off
when they attended a cheque presentation ceremony a t the Moorcock Inn, in Waddington.
Mrs Sumner, who works in the treat
ment room at Clitheroe Health Centre and Mrs Green, who works as a nurse at Slaidburn Health Centre, won substantial backing from members of the Clitheroe Round Table who donated £1,000. Other sponsors included family and
friends, local businesses, community groups and individuals. The friends would like to thank every one who sponsored them and would espe cially like to thanks their husbands who supported them all along. Our picture shows (from left to right)

Don’t experiment with an untested solution to a prevailing problem; ask someone who has experience and who can give you solid advice. Someone close to you is basing an important decision on the emotions of the moment rather than looking at the long-term possibilities. A calm discussion can bring things into better balance as you show yourself willing to make some changes. With generosity of spirit you not only win the day, but the heart of someone special.

You could very easily stand in the centre ring and have all eyes focused on you as you achieve a professional honour or get recognised for your singular talent. A relationship that has a strong foundation in friendship takes a new turn as romantic feelings begin to stir. It’s worth thinking about whether or not you want to indulge this as it could cost you in the long run. Compare notes with family members about an upcoming event so you don't duplicate efforts.

You start the week enjoying your time with family and friends, but life soon takes a more serious turn as matters involving insurance, legal papers or wills need your attention. Remember not to put all your eggs in one basket as you stand to do better by spreading the risk. If you want to relax, and have a peaceful weekend it will be well worth putting in overtime to get a job done and dusted.

You may find out something that you’d rather not know over the next few days as information reaches your ears about the activities of someone close. Family relations are tense as you work through a conflict; you may find taking a break from each other for a while is the best course of action. When you've had time to think things through quietly you can mend fences or at least agree to disagree. Young people bring special pleasure to a get-together.

Attend an artistic event or use your leisure time to start a hobby that involves creating something useful or beautiful. Placing yourself in inspiring surroundings is important now. Later in the week your courage comes to the surface and you'll feel confident enough to face someone you'd been avoiding having a confrontation with. If you've been waiting to express your love or make a proposal, this is a good time to move forward. Watch out, someone you had hoped to keep a secret from is about to discover the truth!
When you have to handle a business or commercial situation you'll notice that as you lower your voice people will pay more attention to you. Being confident is only half of what's needed to get yourself ahead; the other half is who you know, so network your way to success. Your skills are also important, so don't be backward in coming forward
| about what you can do. The end of the week brings a chance to relax in
' peaceful surroundings and the time to enjoy the company of loved ones.
You’re so distracted now you're likely to overlook an important detail. It would be a good Idea to write notes to yourself and pin them up in a prominent place to jog your memory. Romance is being served up as an almost daily delight, but the end of the week brings a special treat your way. If you’re of a mind to, you can enter into a new relationship or strengthen an old one. Anything requiring you to use your imagination and creativity will go well.

Grand award leaves pupils bowled over!
PUPILS at Edisford Primary School, Clitheroe, were left bowled over when they received a cash injection of £1,000 allowing them to try their hands at crown green bowling. Thanks to the generosity of Ribble Valley
Borough Council, youngsters will now be able to take advantage of the good weather by practising their bowling skills at Clitheroe Bowling Club during their “Gold en Time” reward, awarded for good behaviour.
The club aims eventually to extend this
facility to all junior schools and special needs groups across the Ribble Valley. Commenting on the cash amount and
new sport for the pupils, the school’s sup port teacher and the club’s secretary Mrs Helen Woodward, said: “We are extremely grateful to the council for donating the money, which has been used to purchase junior woods. The feedback from children has so far been tremendous. In fact, there is now a waiting list.” Our picture shows borough Mayor and
Mayoress, Coun. Charles and Mrs Ruth Warkman presenting a cheque to Mrs Woodward, along-with Years 3 and 6 pupils from the school. (A110604/4)

Litter Critters are the tops!
by Duncan Smith
“LITTER Critter” creators Mathew Ingham and Kristian Holden are the
tops at turning rubbish into art. The Clitheroe pupils beat off competi
tion from across Lancashire to finish first and second in an art competition run by the Wildlife After School Project (WASP).
; The idea for the competition came from I WASP club members, who meet at schools | throughout the North West. These young i naturalists are aware of the damage to i wildlife and the environment caused by lit- ! ter, landfill and pollution so instead of throwing away their rubbish they have turned it into sculptures of British V lldlife. Now these “Litter Critters” have gone
on display at the Mere Sands Wood Nature Reserve Visitors Centre, Rufford. With more than 100 entries, choosing the winning designs was extremely difficult,

daughter of Mr and Mrs Anne and Andrew Ogston, of Kemple View, Clitheroe. She was given away by her father and
wore a strapless oyster satin gown with ruched detail to the bodice, lace detail on the back with a long train, embroidery and hand-beaded detail. She also wore a mid length veil with crystal and oyster satin edging and carried a hand-tied bouquet of champagne, oyster and cream roses. The bride was attended by her university
friends Maxine Kibble and Judith Grange. They wore strapless satin two-piece dresses in periwinkle blue and carried hand-tied bouquets to match the brides. The bridegroom, who is an IT service
delivery manager, is the son of Mrs Dorothy Jackson of Moorland Avenue, Clitheroe, and the late Mr David Jackson. His best man was his best friend, Mr
James Clarkson, while Mr Simon Gretton acted as usher.
The ceremony was conducted by Canon David Bruno with music from organist
Janet Holland. Meanwhile, the master of ceremonies
