Kirkheaton PO on the Move! Your FREE MAGAZINE for Kirkheaton, Upper Heaton, Gawthorpe, Bog Green, Briggate, Houses Hill, Wellhouse ISSUE 22 & Lascelles Hall NEWS AUTUMN 2018 Kirkheaton PO on the move! After over twenty five years as postmasters at Kirkheaton Post Office on St Mary’s Lane, Lynn and Michael Whitehouse are preparing to stick their last stamps, weigh their last parcels, close the PO and retire. Fortunately, Kirkheaton is not losing its PO. If all goes to plan it will relocate to the newsagents at the corner of Shop Lane and Town Road in the near future. However, this has caused some concern among residents as parking and pedestrian access are serious issues in the area. But on the plus side it will have two Bumper open counters and will be open for longer hours six and half days a week. Various other venues were considered but have issue! had to be discounted for varying reasons. NCS SUCCESS Michael became postmaster in April 1998 after a career as a mining surveyor. He commented “ When Margaret Thatcher THIRTY YEARS ON! closed down all the pits, my job disappeared, so I did what I always fancied doing - run a PO - which I’ve really enjoyed.” DALTON WARD During his 25 years at the job he has seen many changes. WEEKEND “Business has changed. At one time there were OAP’s queuing out of the door to collect their money on pension days. All that has gone now as pensions are paid directly into bank accounts. The government has also moved many of its services online so many people no longer renew their car tax or buy their TV licences etc at the PO. Now much of his custom comes from people trading on Ebay and, with the demise of local branch offices, bank customers increasingly use the PO for their banking services. Michael and Lynn are moving to sunny Blackpool but hope to spend much of their time at their apartment in Portugal. They have supported many community initiatives over the years and will be greatly missed. We wish them well in their retirement. Sad loss of Dr George Redmonds – local historian On 10 August, aged 82, George Redmonds sadly passed away after a short illness. He was an internationally recognised historian, specialising in the origin of surnames and place names. He was awarded a PhD at Leicester University in 1970 for his research into surnames of the West Riding, and in 1973 his work was published as the first volume of the English Surnames series. A resident of Lepton, near Huddersfield, he gave up his job as a senior lecturer at the town’s Polytechnic to become a freelance historian in 1974, earning a living through his local history publications.

Nine teams including players, parents and coaches from the Under 6’s to the Under 17’s took part on a very hot Sunday morning in July. Over 50 walkers set off from various locations including Ossett, Horbury, Cumberworth, Scissett, Holmfirth, Hepworth, Northowram, Greetland and Meltham. The challenge was to be the first team back to the football ground, with each age group covering nearly 10 miles. Along each route teams also had specific challenges and tasks to complete, including group selfies at specific landmarks, answering local knowledge questions, and a favourite of each team - a drink at a local pub! On returning to their football ground at Bankfield Lane they were met by supporters to enjoy an afternoon of entertainment together with a well-earned drink and BBQ. The walk raised a massive £3500 in sponsorship and KFC would like to thank everyone who sponsored the walkers, the volunteers who helped organise the event, everyone who helped on the day, and everyone who attended. They also hosted their 4th Annual Football Gala in September. Thirty teams attended from all over West Yorkshire. Thanks to their support and all the hard work of the volunteers the club raised around £2,500. Kirkheaton had a number of teams in all age groups with the U10’s as trophy winners in their league. The £6000 raised from these two events will go towards plans to build a permanent club house and equipment for Kirkheaton Youth Football.

We are all aware of the story of Guy Fawkes’ attempt to blow up Parliament, and that the lighting of celebratory November bonfires seems to have started as early as 1605 once the Gunpowder Plot was foiled. However, the earliest effigies on the fire were usually those of the Pope and the Devil, burned on Gunpowder Treason Day, as it used to be known. In 1677, one particularly grisly Pope effigy had its belly filled with live cats which “squalled most hideously as soon as they felt the fire,” which shows that not only was the tradition of Catholic effigy burning by then well-established, but that it was also getting rather out of hand. Indeed, in 1683 bonfires and fireworks were banned as liable to cause civil disruption. The tradition was revived with the accession of William of Orange in 1688, and over the next two centuries November 5th became Guy Fawkes’ Night and the effigies burned were of the traitor himself. So far, so familiar.

  • YORKSHIRE EVENING POST 1890 to 1900
    YORKSHIRE EVENING POST 1890 to 1900 1 3 December 1890 An inquest was held yesterday on the body of Sarah Jackson, 37, the wife of a canal boatman. Deceased had only arrived in Salford with her husband, when she went ashore with him. On returning to the flat some little time before him, the deceased, it is believed, missed her footing in the darkness and fell into the canal at Oldfield Road. Search was made for the body, which was found near the shore side.
