RESTAURANT owner Carole Brown has scored her first ever hole-in-one on the eighth at Clitheroe.

Carole, who owns Brown's Bistro in the town, used a seven wood to pull off the feat five years after first taking up the sport.

"I was shocked when it happened," said Carole, who plays off a handicap of 29.

"You can't see the green from the tee, so I had no idea it had gone straight in until I eventually found my ball in the hole."
