    Yes in 1971ish, before that Barnsley was a County Borough and not part of the West Riding. Areas on the periphery like Cudworth, Royston etc were all in the West Riding but not Barnsley which had its own status.

    Born and brought up in Wombwell before going to uni in Manchester. Moved back to work in Sheffield and settled in Rotherham as wife is from Derby and we're near the M1 for both sets of parents and work. I'd rather live somewhere more rural like Wentworth or Penistone but travel dictates.

    I have a picture of a Talysarn man as the wallpaper on my phone...Idwal ap Ieuan Jones.....a stunt pilot with Sir Alan Cobham's Flying Circus in the 1930's .
    That's the first time I've ever seen the village mentioned by anyone outside my own research on him.

    Born in Wakefield...lived in South Hiendley...Armthorpe...Edenthorpe...moved to Barnsley
    ( Ardsley) when I was about 9, I'm fortunate enough to remember Tarn when it was a unique, interesting quirky place before the council decided to knock most of the best bits down.... last 25 years I've been in Mexborough.
