REGENERATION is the bringing of new life to old buildings, linking people
of the past, present and future. T to definition was given to Clitheroe
Civic Soaety by Nigel Rix in his presen tation.
Since 1994, Nigel has been involved in
Lancashire-based regeneration projects. In that year he was the catalyst in sug
gesting joint funding between Hyndbum Council and private enterprise to regen erate Globe Mill in Accrington (formerly Howard & Bullough’s textile engineer- ing). Hyndbum Council had a vision of a business centre for the area instead-
of building just houses on the site. The Globe is a successful example of innova tive regeneration. In 2005, Nigel moved to freelance work, forming a new company, PEARL
(Pendle Enterprise And Regeneration Ltd). With Pendle Council, he enabled the
Ace Centre in Nelson. The transforma tion of Lob Lane Mill, Brierfield, on the bank of the Leeds and Liverpool Ca nal, is now complete. Named Quaker Heights it is now apartments with a new house complex, yet the old mill is still largely there and has not been lost.
One of Nigel’s deep principles is the
support of people in later life. The lack of provision for the elderly led him, in partnership with Lancaster City Council, to develop Silverdale sheltered accom modation with care facilities for local people beautifully set in an orchard. The old house now has a new purpose. The problem of regenerating church
buildings so that they function fully for local people is another area of Nigel’s work. Iimovative schemes such as adding a Christian cafe or creating community spaces have worked well. His company. Faith in Regeneration, seeks to build up
has put his Faith in regeneration
harder to find but a way fotward^is usT ally found.
People’s use of old buildings keem
the past alive. Local people must be in volved, and with proactive local leader ship and councils seeking the collective influence of the population, regenera tion ideas for towns will succeed, he savs Nigel’s talk was fascinating and
thought-provoking. The before and after pictures made the audience realise just
what could be achieved in regeneratine
buildings. Everywhere there are build ings waiting for new life.
N aturalists take ‘trip’ to Belarus
“BELARUS - it’s natural and unnatural history” was the in- tri^ing title of the latest presen
tation to Clitheroe Naturalists’ Society. Given by Charlie Liggett at the
St Maiy’s Centre, the illustrated lecture described a little known part of Europe which receives very few tourists. It’s name trans lates as White Russia and there is a population of 10 million. It’s capital, Minsk, was 95% de
stroyed during the Second World War and whole generations were wiped out and all the Jews killed. It became a police state following the Russian invasion in 1974 and the country has many memorials to the dead.
It is about the size of England
and Scotland put together and borders Lithuania and Poland. Contamination occurred follow
ing the Chernobyl explosion due to the wind direction and in the “prohibited zone” created by the disaster wildlife has flourished - including wolves, bears and elk. The result of Russian influence
was the development of fitness centres, a gigantic opera house and the low rates of tenancies of the housing.
The landscape is composed
largely of marshland and the . highest point is only about 340 metres. The Pripiatt marshes re main untouched by modern de velopment and the easiest way to travel about is by boat. Charlie’s party were the only tourists to visit the country that year. Although Belarus has its own
language, only 5% of the people can speak it. Out in the coun
tryside most are self-sufficient, growing their own vegetables.
herbs and producing delicious honey - no supermarkets here! Birds Include the Eagle oivl
Azure Tits and a White Winged Tern. In the marshes insects are flourishing, great raft spiders and snakes and frogs in numbers.
Later in the year come the mos quitoes. V The president of the country
has his wooden summer home - a “dacha” - and enjoys the sport o f hunting and shooting. Wild boar haunt the forests and recently bison have been intro duced, while at the other end of the size scale dormice are found. Wild flowers also abound. 'Hiis was an unusual country to
visit and not one of the audience had been to Belarus. The soci ety’s chairwoman, Muriel Carru- thers, expressed the thanks of the audience for this intriguing talk.
