We’ve had a fantastic year supporting local businesses and the local community with events.

Well done to last month’s competition winner: Hilda Hodkinson. £50 is on its way, and also Mr Biggin, too - who is the winner of a free MOT at James Jackson’s Central Garage.

The complete interior design specialists ‘It’s great you’ve got all the latest styles and designs!’ not an unusual comment from recent clients of Lords new Soft Furnishing and Interior Design Service. With exclusive designs and colours, fabrics and wall coverings from Clarke & Clarke and Ian Mankin, i-Live fabrics, wallcoverings and soft furnishings, paints from Farrow & Ball or Mylands of London, It really is worth a visit and a chat with Amanda. There are bespoke shades and blinds, even luxe sheers for bi-fold doors. ‘The interior design studio really came about to help clients put a final finish to a room or area where we had installed a new kitchen bathroom, bedroom, study or media room. Very often clients pay so much attention, quite rightly so, to the design and installation that they overlook the finishing touches until the tradesmen leave, meaning they have to start all over again’ commented Amanda Glendinning the interior consultant, ‘Now when Lords finally leave the building everything is done and the room is ready to be lived in.’ The design service is not exclusive to clients having an installation carried out by Lords, but it is open to anyone who wants advice or simply to would like to come in and look at the designs we have.

It really follows the ethos of director Mark Lord from when he started in 1988 of ‘from design to completion’, including all planning and building incorporating all trades with complete project management throughout. The new showroom has 15 stunning displays as well as a Siemens IQ Centre, where using the latest in design software the experienced team can plan and design your installation from a wide range of quality manufacturers. When a prospective new customer or an existing client comes to us with a well conceived idea of what they want, or even a blank piece of paper, we have the design, build management, interior style and affordability to guarantee you the best for your home.

THE WOW FACTOR

Isabel and Mark Spencer explain how Robert Pallant Designs gave their new kitchen the wow factor. Photography: TVPAV.com

Poulton couple turned to Robert Pallant Designs for a second time to design and fit their new kitchen. When Isabel and Mark Spencer decided to move to a new home in 2010, their first task was to extend the kitchen area, and as smart shoppers they decided to collect quotes from a selection of different companies. “We’d used Robert Pallant before on a previous kitchen and his work was fantastic, but we thought it wise to shop around to see what else was on the market. When it came down to it, Robert’s

design and quote were far superior. Robert was the only designer who took our ideas and developed them using his expertise. The others simply recreated them,” said Isabel. Working with a monochrome colour palette in black and white high gloss with a large island unit, a white Corian worktop and a stunning floating glass-backed breakfast bar in star galaxy granite, the couple’s kitchen creates a real wow factor, making it the highlight of their beautiful home. But as enjoyable as the design process was, it wasn’t without its complications. Isabel explained: “Mark had his heart set on handleless units, but with high gloss black cupboards, I had concerns about finger marks. Robert presented us with a solution in subtle grip-ledge stainless steel handles, which look great and make maintaining the kitchen’s shine a whole lot easier. “We also had an issue with the placement of the extractor fan due to the fact that a skylight meant

we couldn’t place it on the ceiling. Robert suggested a downdraft extractor, which not only solved the original issue, but also made it so that we can see out into the garden whilst cooking.”

a daily basis to oversee the fitting and manage the project.” Testament to the fantastic job that Robert and his team did on the Spencers’ kitchen, the couple actually

The smart extractor fan is by De Dietrich, with the rest of Isabel and Mark’s new appliances being sourced by Robert from Siemens. Robert Pallant also planned the kitchen’s impressive lighting, which complements the room perfectly. On installing the new units and appliances, Isabel said: “The fitting of the kitchen was the easy bit when it came to the extension as a whole. The twins, who actually fitted our old kitchen, did a perfect job and Robert popped in on

invited them back to fit matching entertainment units in a new seating area. “I’d use Robert Pallant Designs again without doubt and I know many people who would say the same,” finished a delighted Isabel.

• Wyre Archaeology Wyre Archaeology (WAG) offers a rare opportunity for anyone with an interest in the history of the Wyre and Fylde area to get hands on experience of practical archaeology. In past seasons we have excavated a Roman Road in Stalmine, an 18 Century cottage, a Roman site in Kirkham and a possible Iron Age settlement in Thornton. Our BIG DIG in June did find evidence of Iron Age, Roman and Early Mediaeval presence in the Thornton area and we’ll be following up this tantalising evidence in future digs. WAG is open to people of all ages and has previously provided practical experience for students going on to study for degrees in Archaeology. We’re keen to have new digging members but you’d be welcome whatever skill you might be able to bring at whatever level. We’re fully insured and we provide basic training and equipment. We’re affiliated to the Council for British Archaeology and have strong links with local professionals in the field. A meeting held at Farmer Parr’s in Thornton on the 3rd Wednesday of each month*, starting at 7.00pm, keeps everyone informed of activities and there are occasional guest speakers. Non-members may attend up to 3 meetings without charge. (* No meeting in January. Christmas meeting includes Hot Pot supper £6.00 for non-members). Email the Secretary on: secwyrearch@aol.com or call 0752 850 3710. For the bigger picture see our website on: www.wyrearchaeology.org.uk
