They were fashionable back in the nineties for a while.

Nice to see quite a few ladies wearing a flat cap. I am, however, mindful that flat caps are a unifying working class thing well outside Yorkshire!

Incestual place, as were a lot of the old mining towns. Hardest grafters going but it's well known in S.Y what was going off.

Loved it, very interesting, well done the both of you

Great seventh installment

Well done, very interesting. Looking forward to the next one.

Well done for the July quiz - hope there is more to follow

I would love to see inside that old building, it got some character.

Hi, nice questions but the whole quiz is far too drawn out, too long on each question.

After 78 years living in the village I still learned a lot from this story. Thank you so much.

It's all about money . The root to all evil...

Great info - more more more

My grandparents used their cellar as a shelter. Their dog heard the bombers coming long before they did and didappeared down the steps! My mother worked in a steel laboratory and walked in to work from Ecclesall to Attercliffe after the first raid.

Great video, lovely shots of Hemingfield.

Well told story, keep it up!

Thank you for sharing - lovely to find out the history of local places

Excellent 5th installment - great work

Nicely produced - this is quality! This deserves way more views.

Got to say r8 enjoyed this many thanx

Respect to all old miners from a miners daughter granddaughter sister niece cousin.mi older brother was in two pit accidents at Houghton main pit n we were lucky cos it could ave ended badly xx

It was part of a much older culture and the real history is buried beneath mud and obscured by time. The only folly here is the fake history we've been fed. Halifax means Holy Face. John the Baptist's body is said to be hurried there.

23!

I wonder if the shaft is still open or filled in?

Isn't the Needle supposedly used for the Coach Driver exam? If you drive through it without hitting the sides you are qualified.

Well done

Great film and very interesting! It’s a shame the building has been blighted by pathetic graffiti!

I spent the first 23 years of my life in Maltby. Born in 1969. Mixed feelings about Maltby. Great video.

Lovely to join you on this walk

Don't forget all the car thefts the police don't do anything about

Great video and lots of information

Great video and informative narration 👌

Great Video. Matt Smith says Hi

It's not called fearns Park though

I have now watched all four of your Chapel Green series. I was brought up in High Green & have been living in Ecclesfield since 1978. All the videos are very enlightening and well presented. Its good to see some of the usually unseen stalwarts of our local community who willingly give their time and efforts for others. Thank you to them and to you Joshua for your efforts, Excellent.

Thank you for an in depth look at Grenoside, it’s history and it’s people. Very good.

Very Interesting.

Thanks very much. Keep it going.xx

I enjoyed this video. I used to walk with my dad from Wincobank to Scholes Coppice and enjoy the view from Keppels Column in the 1950s when I was a child.

21- this was hard!!

Lovely video. Keeping the mining heritage alive! Great volunteer - make it a family objective. Very important indeed.

The events at George Square did signal a wave of militancy across the Country. The use of the army was an extreme gamble, as Soviet-style Councils were set up in Folkestone and even Royal Tubridge Wells, by soldiers. Liverpool erupted in riots and even the Police went on strike. But the hot-bed of resistance was located in Glasgow, even after the events in January. 1919 was very much, a year of revolt in which the British establishment was panicked. As you eluded to, revolution in Russia and developments in Germany was focusing the minds of the British ruling class. Also Italy was under-going factory occupations and the creation of 'workers councils' in Turin and Milan. Yet, in Scotland, the revolutionary John Maclean was to be singled out, just as much as James Connolly was in 1916. Where Maclean was arrested and underwent numerous abuses in the Scottish prison system. Yet from this period, many new radical personalities alongside Gallagher were to etch themselves into the consciousness of the working people of Glasgow, such as Jimmy Maxton, Manny Shinwell and Harry McShane. Once those tanks hit the streets of Glasgow, the city joined the ranks of Liverpool and Birmingham as the cities of working class and radical resistance to the system.

There are no reports because that would be bad propaganda. The media was well under control back then. It's the reason we didn't have many reports of the Spanish flu that spread across Europe was barely reported in the UK and other wars torn nations as the media was trying to keep post war moral high. It was only in Spain who had remained neutral during the first World War that were reporting on the situation regularly hence why it got dubbed the Spanish flu. It was not just Spain who suffered, however, the post war nationals needed to keep up moral by using the media and will likely be why reports of what really happened in Glasgow in 1919 would not have been many and/or fully factual. Good video on the subject! Well done!

Did you mention the monument at the top of Kendray hill , doncaster road . More or less opposite the Becketts hospital entrance .
