Councillors were told that neighbours and other residents have complained for several months that it is an eye sore and should be moved out of sight or screened off. The school will plant shrubs round I t in the spring, but the residents want something done sooner. One resi dent, speaking on behalf of several others, said the bin seriously reduced Sabden’s chances of success in the Best-Kept ’Vil lage Competition and that Sabden should withdraw if the bin remained. It was pointed out, however, that dis cussions had taken place with the school headteacher and the bin was to remain where it was. One council lor said he agreed with the residents and a bright blue bin was not what you would expect to see in the centre of the village and next to the school which is a beautiful building. Another said that there was already a large re cycling centre on the village car park and could it not be placed there. One member said it was “another e.xample

The council hopes that the resi dents who do this will move their bins but of sight where possible to improve the look of the vil lage.
Reports The playground in spection had found the area in reason able condition and no particular prob lems. The council is looking at possible ways to celebrate the Great Poppy Party weekend, June 10th to 12th, to mark the Royal British Legion’s 90th birthday or National Family Week, May 30th to June 5th. Any sug gestions will be welcome and the council will also look at the borough council’s plans to mark the events. It was reported that a large Father Christ mas statue that had been stolen from the White Hart had been found broken and hidden behind the recycling bins on the village car park. The theft from two village churches, and attempted theft from another, was also reported. A man had been due to appear before Blackburn magis trates last Thursday charged with theft, but had failed to at tend and a warrant had been issued.
Closure Councillors were asked if there were any sites in Sabden where highway markings are worn and need refresh ing. They are to give a list to Lanca shire County Coun cil Highway Dept whose staff will be in the village in Feb ruary to carry out work on the Bull Bridge. The bridge at Padiham Road will be closed to all through traffic from February 19th to 27th while work is carried out to make a new road layout including a traffic priority system and lietter provision for pedestrians.
