    St Helens

    Edward Sherien school in Athersley, was called St Helens school, before the old eddy closed. if you check your history, i think its something to do with saint Helena and there is a spring/font somewhere near Barnsley Bowl.

    There is - my mum was part of the restoration team

    Lots of links with St Helens round there - Primary School + Secondary school St Helen's Avenue + churchi and I'm sure there used to be a farm on the fields behind Barnsley bowl that was named St Helen's as well
