Worksop Town F
Worksop ( ) is a market town in the Bassetlaw District in Nottinghamshire, England.

A number of other recorded place names contain this same personal name element. In ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Frickley Athletic F
Frickley is a village in the Metropolitan Borough of Doncaster, South Yorkshire, England in the civil parish of Clayton with Frickley. It lies close to the border with West Yorkshire. Local landmarks All Saints Church Frickley All Saints Church is situated about from the main village in the middle of a field, accessed by a lane from the road. The reason for this unusual site stems back to plague times, when Frickley village was effectively burnt to the ground and re-sited on the top of the hill following a plague epidemic. The only proof that the village was ever anywhere else is the oddly sited church. Being the only stone building of the time, it was left where it was, and survives to this day as an active place of worship in the Parish of Bilham. The church has some interesting 18th-19th century graves including that for someone "cruelly murdered on the highway between Clayton and Frickley". The church is a small ancient structure, with a tower, in the interior are some cyli ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
