More about this scene
With its 29 automated locks, this modern, commercial waterway forms a link with sea-going ships at the port of Goole. The Sheffield & South Yorkshire was established in 1895, and was created from a grouping of several much older waterways, including the Stainforth & Keady and the Sheffield canals.

I used to stay at the"Almel Hotel"&the"Salutation"in Doncaster whenever I was on the long haul up to Northern Scotland
I was born in Kirk Sandall, Doncaster, and our family are trying to trace the family tree.
My grandmother Mrs F M Britten used to run a grocery shop at 109 Balby Road in the 1930s (I believe it's now a hairdressers) Does anyone remember this, and has any photo's of the shop. My father, Samuel Britten died 5years ago, so I'm trying to find someone who may have any memories of that time, and fill in some history. My name was Anne Britten prior to marriage.
