28 photos as Burnley firefighter Lee Clough hosts retirement bash at Burnley's Penny Black

Well known Burnley firefighter Lee Clough hosted a party to mark his retirement, after 30 years in the profession.

Hundreds of people packed into Penny Black venue on Hargreaves Street in Burnley for the bash on Saturday.

Lee, aka ‘Cloughy’ was joined by family, including his wife Michelle and daughters Zoe (24) and 20-year-old Amy, friends and colleagues past and present.

Last year Lee, who was stationed at Burnley for many years before ending his career at Darwen, was the triumphant winner of Pendleside Does Strictly. Lee and his best pal Gary Scully, and all the other contestants, raised the grand total of £100K for the hospice.

Here are some red hot photos from the party that was a huge success.
