shops and buses and long dis­ cussions about how farming has changed during this rel­ atively short period of time. One farmer described how the sheep on Tarnbrook Fell


had their fleecespeckedoffby the gulls that roost up there.


Others recalled how changes in technology and machin­ ery had made their lives less physically challenging, but re­ quired them to become busi­ nessmen, nutritionists and scientists all rolled into one.


Jonty Collinson, chairman


of Champion Bowland Trus­ tees, said: “This project has been a real success in bring­ ing people together to talk, and to appreciate the special place that they live in.”


Sara Hilton, head of Herit- age Lottery Fund North West,


added: “Bowland Scrapbook has enabled people to share their heritage, to learn new skills and to find out more about the changes that.have taken place oyer the last 50 years - an important era of change that needs document­ ing now, for the future.-We’re delighted that we were able to support this project.” The Bowland Scrapbook


is available from the Forest of Bowland AONB Office in Dun- sop Bridge, shops and visitor information centres in Clithe­ roe, Garstang and Lancaster, Bashall Barn and Clitheroe Library for a small donation which will support future Champion Bowland projects in the AONB.
