This weeks BBC History magazine e-mail contains a link for Roche Abbey: http://www.bbchistorymagazine.com/visit/roche-abbey-yorkshire?utm_source=Adestra&utm_medium=email&utm_term=&utm_content=&utm_campaign=History%2012%2F11%2F10 The way it describes the monks eviction seems quite polite!
Mexborough's now decommissioned fire station got a mention in yesterdays Yorkshire Post. The story recounts how the stations plaque has been saved for posterity and donated to the Fire and Police Museum in Sheffield http://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/localnews/Slice-of-fire-service-history.6622896.jp
Don't forget next weeks meeting is on Monday at 19.30 and recounts the story of one of Sheffield's greatest tragedies when the Dale Dyke dam burst flooding thousands of acres of land and drowning many people and livestock
Lastly, apologies for anyone who's received a spam e-mail from my personal e-mail address, seems some dodgy people have hacked my account! I've reported it so hopefully you won't receive any more.
