  • RIBBLE VALLEY Railnews
    www.ribblevalleyrail.co.uk RIBBLE VALLEY RAILNews July Number 113 2016 Langho in Bloom A recently formed group 'Langho in Bloom' have very quickly established themselves in the village and transformed some of the grot spots, in particu- lar in the area surrounding the railway station. The group have also worked with the Friends of Langho station on the station approach in particular around the underpass and station garden area and made a noticeable difference to the areas enhancing the passenger experi- ence. Planting adjacent to subway at Langho station carried out by Langho in Bloom. Photo: Brian Haworth The group, with permission from Network Rail have also removed overhang- ing bushes from the embankment close to the railway bridge and planted the area with plants that will give some colour to the embankment next year. It is brilliant to work in partnership with such a dedicated group and members of Friends of Langho Station would like to record our appreciation of the work so far carried out with 'Langho in Bloom' and look forward to continued partner- ship working. Embankment cleared of scrub & awaiting planting. Photo: Brian Haworth From the Chair July 2016 Travelling along the Ribble Valley Line passengers cannot help but be im- pressed by the colourful displays in the flowers tubs at Clitheroe, Whalley, Langho, Wilpshire and Darwen. These flowers do not suddenly appear, it is down to the hard work undertaken by the Friends of Stations groups along the line who undertake the planting and upkeep of the flower tubs. We are very fortunate to have the help of the Whalley in Bloom and the re- cently formed Langho in Bloom groups who have been assisting us at their local stations.

  • Review of the Borough of Ribble Valley
    Boundary Review Review of The Borough of Ribble Valley Ribble Valley Borough Council - Warding Proposal To the Local Government Boundary Commission for England January 2017 Ribble Valley Borough Council set up a cross‐party working group to consider proposals on the warding patterns with support from officers. The group recognised that changes were required in order to gain electoral equality across the borough. Some wards are already outside the +/- 10% variance and other wards will be by 2022 following expected development. The electoral forecast for 2022 is 48,027 which equates to 1,201 electors per Councillor (currently 1136). The working group worked on a number of options. The working groups preferred option was submitted to Policy and Finance Committee on 24 January and the committee approved the option being submitted as the Council’s proposals. The Council has followed the principle of trying to keep parishes as a whole, however it was considered it was impossible to make the numbers up (retaining 40 members) without splitting two parishes. Please find below the Council’s proposals: The Proposals Having considered the forecast electorate and warding it is recommended that remaining with 40 Councillors would provide efficient and effective representation to the public and best enable appropriate warding proposals. Calculations based on alternative numbers of Councillors, for example 41, didn’t work across the borough and in some wards created even bigger variances. The review started by looking at the wards at the outermost edges of the borough in the north east and south west of the borough - as there is less scope for changes to boundaries in these areas due to being surrounded by other boroughs.

  • Ribble Valley Settlement Hierarchy
    RIBBLE VALLEY SETTLEMENT HIERARCHY Executive Summary Observations The summary below is derived from the more detailed analyses of the contextual and demographic data set out in Appendix 1 and the local services and facilities data described in Appendix 2. • Clitheroe stands out as the most significant settlement within the Borough, with the best provision of services and facilities • The next two settlements, Longridge and Whalley also stand out from all other settlements in terms of provision across all the various service and facilities categories. While Whalley is smaller than some other settlements, such as Langho and Wilpshire, they have significantly poorer service and facility provision. In Wilpshire’s case this could be due to the services in the area falling into adjacent parts of Blackburn. • Eleven settlements clustered towards the bottom of the hierarchy all scored poorly across nearly all categories. These are: Osbaldeston, Tosside, Copster Green, Pendleton, Sawley, Calderstones, Newton, Wiswell, Rimington, Worston and Holden. Only in terms of community facilities did a few of this group, Pendleton, Newton and Rimington, have good or reasonable provision. This leaves 21 remaining settlements within the hierarchy with a spectrum of provision between these two extremes. There are no significant “step changes” within this group, however those towards the top of this group, scoring 20 and above points were considered the initially most likely to possibly act as more local centres. It could be argued that this 20 point limit is somewhat arbitrary however. • This group contains: Langho, Mellor, Chatburn, Ribchester, Waddington, Dunsop Bridge and Sabden. Most of this group, perhaps unsurpringly, have relatively large populations of over 1000, with only Waddington and Dunsop Bridge being smaller.

This ward profile supplements the larger Ribble Valley profile, which provides a more comprehensive picture of the district. The ward includes the following areas: Clayton-le-Dale, Ramsgreave, Salesbury, Osbaldeston, and Copster Green. The following villages neighbour the ward: Ribchester, Mellor, Mellor Brook, Balderstone, Wilpshire, Dinckley, and Hurst Green.
