Celebrations marred by attack with glass


CELEBRATIONS marking end of term were marred by violence when a student was hit in the face with a glass. The victim had initially gone to shake


the hand of Miles Fullalove, who pushed him away. When Alexander Newton approached


him again, Fullalove struck out and the glass broke when it caught the sixth for­ mer’s face, causing two cuts which need­ ed specialist treatment. Fullalove (19), of Twitter Lane,


Bashall Eaves, pleaded guilty at Preston Crown Court to a charge of unlawful wounding. He was given a sentence of eight months custody, suspended for a year, and must also carry out 100 hours’ unpaid work and pay £750 in compensa­ tion to his ■victim. ’ The offence dated back to May 23rd, when Mr Newton, a student at Clitheroe


Royal Grammar School, was celebrating the end of term for the sixth form. He had gone to the Castle pub, Clitheroe, that evening. He knew Fullalove through a mutual friend. Mr Paul Cummings (prosecuting) said


Mr Newton was in the beer garden ivith his girFriend and the defendant was also there. A brief conversation took place between the two men, with Fullalove asking him whether the female was his girFriend. The student was invited into the pub


by friends and la te r Mr Newton approached the defendant, wanting to shake his hand. Fullalove refused and Mr Newton went towards him and was standing immediately in front of him, said the prosecution. The defendant pushed him away. Mr


Newton went back towards him and at th a t point Fullalove s tru ck out. He accepted he had a glass in his hand and

CLITHEROE boy Oliver Dean is one step closer to joining the ranks of celebri­ ty presenters like Dan Snow and Konnie Huq after becoming a finalist in English Heritage’s ‘.‘Young History Presenter of the’Future” competition. For the first time ever, English Her­


itage is offering one young history buff, aged between 10 and 16, the chance to appear on EHTV, its popular online channel accessed on: www.english-her- itage.org.uk/ehtv: The winner will get the chance to pres­


ent a special one-off history programme, which will be watched by thousands on EHTV. St Mary’s Hall, Stonyhurst pupil OUv-


er (11) compiled a video about Rosa Parks, the American black civil rights activist, which wowed the judges and beat off competition from across the UK to scoop the wannabe TV star a place at a presenting “boot camp” with Dan Snow. One of just 10 finalists to make it through, Oliver -will travel to Wellington Arch, in London, to attend Dan’s exclu­ sive master class next Monday (Decem-


ber8th). He will receive essential training and

tips on what makes a good TV presenter, before making his very own professional show reel. Competition judges will then review each finalists’ irideo and select a winner to be citcwned English Heritage’s


2008. Oliver, said: “I can’t wait to get to


Wellington Arch to show the judges what


the glass broke when it caught the -vic­ tim’s face. Mr Newton suffered two lacerations to


the face and was referred for specialist treatment. He had a scar extending from above one eyebrow, across the bridge of his nose and into the left eyebrow. Fullalove had no pre-vious convictions. Mr Mark Stuart (defending) said the


teenager, who had an “impeccable” pre- ■vious character, did not seek to minimise his offence or excuse his behaviour. The offence arose a t a time when he was in an “emotionally raw” state. Mr Stuart told the court: “There is


every reason to beheve he will never be in trouble again. He can’t apologise enough. He should not have punched him. The fact he had a glass in his hand made it worse. This was a very isolated incident." Judge Anthony Russell QC said such an offence merited a custodial sentence, but it could be suspended.


Ban for car salesma


DRINK-DRIVING resulted in an month ban for 22-year-old Tristran Whitehead, of Lowfield Cottage, Stony- hursti He was also fined £100 -with £75 costs by Blackburn magistrates after pleading guUty to dri'ring -with excess alco-. hoi. Mr Andrew Church-Taylor (defending) said the ban could have dire consequences for Whitehead, a car salesman.

I can do. I love history and it would be a dream come true to present a film on- EHTV. I chose Rosa Parks as the subject of my -video because her story is about an everyday person changing the lives of millions.” Sarah-Jane Morris, from English Her­ itage, said: “ We were extremely


. impressed by the quality of entries. Clearly a great deal of time and thought has gone into e-very one and we’d like to ■ thank all those who entered. Oliver’s video particularly stood out though, engaging us right from the start and his enthusiasm for the subject was simply infectious - OUver was a clear finalist.”

ON a cold, but sunny November day, 14 members of the West Lancashire Group of the Long Distance Walkers’ Association (LDWA), enjoyed a lovely scenic 10-mile walk from Whalley. Abbey. ■ ;


R^-The group initially inspected the water iheel at the former.abbey corn mill in


' Whalley, followed by the ascent of the Nab. They then walked down to the River Calder from Heys Farm. The Memorial Park in Great Harwood was the next objective, before a diversion to the top of Bowley Hill,-with its lovely far ranging views th ro u ^ the valley to Pendle, Bow- land and the Yorkshire Dales.. -;


A scenic walk on a glorions cold day A circuit of Dean Clough reservoir fol-


• lowed, with the sad reminder that there were once farms in this valley, some of whose remains are still in e-vidence. Next, came Sunny Bank, a section of Moor Lane, then a steep descent, to finally walk under Whalley Arches back to the Abbey.;


■ The group meets regularly for walks during the week and at weekends, has trips at home and abroad, organises chal- ;


. y


: lenge walks and enjoys social events. For • ' more information contact the secretary,-, Robert Waller, on 01772 862113, or visit: the website: www.ldwa.org.uk/west- -lancashire
