Plans for a new housing devel­ opment in Whalley have been submitted to Ribble Valley Borough Council. OakhillCollegehasapplied


for permission to build up to six houses on surplus land at the Wiswell Lane school. The outline application,


which means for permission in principle, has been submit­ ted by Oakhill Investments. In a letter to the council


a spokesman for the school said: “The proposed develop­ ment site is in the southeast corner of the college and acad­


emy grounds, to the south of the main college car park and artificial sports pitch and ex­ tending eastwards behind and to the side of properties front­ ing Wiswell Lane. • “The proposed housing


would be developed on open land that is surplus to the re­ quirements of the college and academy and is currently used in large part for the grazing of donkeys.” Immediately to the south


of the college and application site, is a housing development site for 260 dwellings (Law-


college’s


sonsteads) that is in the early stages of construction. A spokesman added:


“Since the development of the sports hall and fitness fa­ cilities in 2007, the site has changed from being purely an independent school into a broader based facility for the wider Whalley community.” He maintained that the


proposed development was a unique opportunity to devel­ op the site further as a mixed use facility offering residents ready access to the facilities al­ ready on-site.

Great Value Breaks by coach from Clitheroe Chelsea Flower Show


i & Stratford-upon-Avon


LAST WEEK’S SOLUTIONS, SUDOKU:


Strong winds and flooding hit 11


Gale force winds and heavy rain put hundreds of homes and motorists in the Ribble Valley at risk towards the end oflastweek. •The Environment Agency


issued a flood warning in Clit- heroe after high winds ripped across the borough and tor­ rential rain caused travel tur­ moil for many commuters.


People driving along the


A59 by-pass on Friday evening faced disruption due to the floods. Sgt Craig Garret, of Clithe-


roe Police, said the A59 junc­ tion with Sabden was flooded causing broken down vehi­ cles. It was a similar story on the stretch near to Dunbia slaghterhouse on the A59 and


Gisburn Auction Mart. Parts of.the by-pass were like rivers, making driving conditions


.extremely difficult. Flooding also occurred at most of the usual hotspots such as be­ neath the Waddington Road railways bridge in Clitheroe, which was almost impassable for a time. Parts of Chatburn and Whalley were also hit.
