I Were .Established Here in 1837 CLITHEROE. 447 • mas day, and the 7th of December. Gas '11Jork'i were .established here in 1837", and the nu.mber of public la.mps in the borough is a.bout 65. The cost of the works amoun ted to nearly £3,000. In consequence ofthe accession oftrade to Clitheroe,the popula­ tion has increased amazingly since 1801, when the number ofinhabit­ ants according to the parliamentary return was only 1368; in 1811, the number was 1,767; in 1821, 3,213; in 1831, 5,213; in·1841, 6,765; and in 1851, 7.243, viz., 3,521 males, and 3,719 females. The Clitheroe Union embraces the following 34 townships, viz., Aighton, Bailey, and Chaigley; Bowland Little, Chatburn, Chipp­ ing, Clitheroe, Downham, Leagram, Mearley. Mitton Little, Pendle­ ton, Thornley-with-Wheatly, Twiston, Whalley, Wiswell, and Worston, ill Lancashire; Bashall Eaves, Bolton by Bowland.

Mr. Samuel Wood is clerk to the Union and superintendent registrar. The township contains 2,276 acres, and the principal owners of the soil are Le Gendre N. Starkie, 'Villiam Assheton, J. T. W. Aspinall, D. Robinson; and J. Garnett, E"sqs. A commanding eminence in this locality, 'Caned Pendle Hill, rears its lofty head 1803 feet above the level of the sea, and from~ its summit the views are very extensive. Dr. \Vluitaker says, " The crust of the earth appears to have undergone a violent disruption, in consequence of which the edges of the beds of the minerals are thrown up into the air and down towards the centre of the earth. At an angle of forty five degrees, immediately beyond this appear~ ance rise the huge mass of Pendle, which seems to have been thrown up by the same convulsion; and to the north again appears a surface of limestone, with its c;)ncomitant system of plants and minerals, which, had the strata to the south maintained their na.tural position, must have lain at a vast depth beneath." On the 18th of August, 1669, this elevation discharged such an.. immense lJody of water from near its top, as did great da'mage to the neighbouring country. It is described as a mighty torrent,­ "gustingo out in such quantities and so suddenly, that it made a breast a yard high, and GontiBued nmning for about two hours.'~ On the declivity of Pendle stood .~falkin tower, or Hoarstones, the rendezvous of the witcht.s of Pcndle Forest, where Dame Demdike and about three score other witches celebrated a solemn feast on All Saints' day, in 1633, and for their sorceries, seventeen.

  • 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.
