After a proposal was made by Lancashire County Council to close St Andrew's school, the school governors and parishioners got together and made a sustained appeal with a stated case against closure supported by a signed petition.  A folder containing copies of all the documents was compiled by parishioner Richard Miller's late father which Richard has kindly made available.

As time has now moved-on by almost 20 years there is little point in providing all the details but the folder contains some photographs or, to be more accurate, photostats of photographs.  While it is a great pity that the originals do not appear to be around anymore it is still worthwhile publishing the copies for their intrinsic and historical value.

Despite efforts to enhance quality of the photostats there is obviously a lack of detail but, hopefully, they will still evoke some fond memories for people who were connected with the school in its heyday with all of 20 pupils and two teachers!
