Flags were waved, patriotic songs sung with gusto, and a good time was had by all at


Chatburn's Last Night of the . Proms.


The village’s Christ Church was filled to capacity for the “proms” concert, the latest in a series of highly enjoyable and well-supported Chatburn Mu­ sic Events. It featured the multi-award


winning Leyland Band, under the baton of conductor Huw Thomas, with talented young


sopranoEmilyCarterfeaturing in many of the musical items. The quality of the night’s mu­ sic was second to none, quite remarkable for a small village venue in theRibble Valley,but a feature now synonymous with the Chatburn events.

ed a moving tribute to those who gave their lives in Opera- tion Market Garden, at Arn­ hem, during the Second World War. It was 70 years to the day since those momentous events,


which later formed the basis of the film “A Bridge Too Far”, from which the theme tune was played. Local actor Bob Cleeve delivered a narration and images on a large screen enhanced the presentation, as they did with many of the con­ cert pieces. Among those attending


were the Ribble Valley Mayor and Mayoress, Coun. Michael Ranson and his wife Janette, plus the Bishop of Lancas­ ter, the Rt Rev. Geoff Pearson. The evening included a special presentation to Canon Rodney Nicholson, marking his retire-


mentasVicarofChristChurch and Low Moor, in Clitheroe.

with the remains of the sunset or the afterglow. ’ ■ There were superb nature pictures of butterflies puffins,


leopards, a baby owl, a Fish Ea­ gle and close-ups of flowers. The more energetic action covered swimming from un-

ers, cycling and gold mine ex­ ploration.


Also artworks, sculpture, portraits o f musicians and


some abstract pattern pic­ tures. The most unusual of all summer activities was


Stephen Robinson’s success­ ful tracing of a travel diary by an ancestor and getting per­ mission to examine and pho'- tograph it. Complete with drawings, it was a forerunner of the photographic books so popular today. Clearly the club members
