Mr H. Priestley is still alive, and he is the oldest business man in Thornton who is still carrying on in the same premises where he commenced business 55 years ago. His business now covers a wider field and includes ironmongery, stationery, household goods, and a host of other things. For many years Mr Priestley carried on the postal work of the village, part of the shop being given over to that business.

  • Thursday 26 April 2018 MORE STAR RIDERS CONFIRMED WITH
    Thursday 26 April 2018 MORE STAR RIDERS CONFIRMED WITH ONE WEEK TO GO! With one week to go until the start of the 2018 Tour de Yorkshire, organisers Welcome to Yorkshire and the ASO have unveiled more star names who are set to compete between 3-6 May. Rio 2016 track gold medallist Owain Doull is set to be named in the Team Sky line up which includes British compatriot and two-time Omloop Het Nieuwsblad winner Ian Stannard. Three-time Tour de France stage winner Sylvain Chavanel (Direct Énergie) is also set to compete, as is French sprint star Bryan Coquard (Vital Concept), two-time Vuelta a Espana stage victor Magnus Cort Nielsen (Astana), and 2017 Tour de Yorkshire King of the Mountain Pieter Weening (Rompot-Nederlandse Loterij). There are no-less than 11 Yorkshire-based riders on the provisional start list, equalling the figure from 2017 despite UCI regulations seeing team sizes reduced from eight to seven riders to entice more exciting racing. These include Great Britain Cycling Team duo Ben Swift and Tom Pidcock who were announced on Wednesday. Ben’s cousin Connor will represent Madison Genesis while former British champions Adam Blythe (Aqua Blue Sport) and Russell Downing (Holdsworth Racing) will also be in action. These latest additions follow the big news earlier this month that Mark Cavendish (Team Dimension Data), Olympic road champion Greg Van Avermaet (BMC Racing) and defending Tour de Yorkshire champion Serge Pauwels (Team Dimension Data) will all be present for the fourth edition. Welcome to Yorkshire Chief Executive Sir Gary Verity is thrilled to have attracted such a strong field and is looking forward immensely to four exciting days of action.

  • Press Release RECORD NUMBER of TEAMS UNVEILED for 2018
    Wednesday 21 March 2018 RECORD NUMBER OF TEAMS UNVEILED FOR 2018 TOUR DE YORKSHIRE AND ASDA TOUR DE YORKSHIRE WOMEN’S RACE With just over six weeks to go until the 2018 Tour de Yorkshire, organisers Welcome to Yorkshire and Amaury Sport Organisation have announced a record 40 teams will compete. Welcome to Yorkshire Chief Executive Sir Gary Verity shared the news at Y18 - the UK’s largest tourism event - in Bradford on Wednesday and revealed 20 men’s and women’s teams will be in action, up from 36 in 2017. Of those, 10 teams will be taking part for the very first time. The men’s race – which takes place between 3-6 May – will include six UCI WorldTour teams, seven Pro Continental outfits and six British squads, plus the new Yorkshire-based (although Irish registered) Holdsworth Pro Racing making their debut alongside Astana, Euskadi Basque Country – Murias, Rally Cycling and Vital Concept. The Asda Tour de Yorkshire Women’s Race on 3-4 May also boasts an expanded field. Seven of the 12 top-ranked teams in the world will be in action along with five further European and nine British squads. Of those, Boompods EDCo, Experza-Footlogix, NJC Biemme Echelon, Parkhotel Valkenburg and Team OnForm are new additions for 2018. Welcome to Yorkshire Chief Executive Sir Gary Verity said: “The demand from teams looking to compete in the Tour de Yorkshire is always high and that reflects the esteem in which our race is regarded. Reducing the number of riders per team from eight to seven in the men’s event meant we could invite more squads than ever before, and we also upped the number of women’s teams from 18 to 20 to ensure parity.
