Amazing maltby is we’re I live👍
went to school in Maltby, dad worked in the mine, lived in Mortimer road, still have good memories, moved to Australia in 1959.
Hi Andy
Maltby locals have such respect for the fallen of both world wars ...
That wall of poppies is stunning and most unusual.....along with the two Cenotaphs ....
My respect to the people of Maltby..
Also a lovely place...
Well done Andy
London here but I grew up in Maltby many years ago - the Comp - was the Grammar School back then and the Leisure Centre was built on he old Council offices, the Civic centre. The Full Life Church was the old Folks home, my Mom worked there while I was at school.
Todays Concil HQ used to be the "EDward Dunn memorial Home"
The old Chaple like building on Firth Cresent was the Church of Ascension. My Parents married ther and I was christened there.
The poppy Wall on Bluth Road was the old fnce around Maltby Craggs School I was there as a child but they demolished in in 2008.
The Five Rivers pub used to be called the White Swan. Great pub and one of my first watering holes when I turned 18.
Thanks for this Video, Nostalia overload for me.
Moved to New Zealand in 2000 when i was 14 great to be able to show my kids a walk through of where i used to live
Oh man, the nostalgia feels! Grew up and went to school here from the ages of 6-11. Lived in Australia from 16 on so have not seen it for many decades. Actually recognise some places still. The Whiston and Wickersley vids (went to school in the latter from 11-16, when it was a Comprehensive!) also shivered my timbers. Happy days.
That's great! Once again someone who's moved abroad seeing these and loving them, always a nice comment to get. Thank you! :D
Hi Andy lovely to see Maltby. The old chapel on Firth Crescent was The Church of the Ascension built for the miners of Maltby Pit to Worship. My wedding was the last one held there in 1992. Princess Margaret (The Queen's sister used to stay with Lord and Lady Scarbrough for the weekend. And his cousin Joanna Lumley was seen having a drink in the Black Lion at Firbeck.
Definitely a Part 2 worthy comment right there! Thanks Claire! That'll be why they're called Ascension Mews then? :D
@@TheVillageIdiot my brother organised the development. And yes it is the reason for the name.
Great video just been showing my Grandma as she can no longer walk and was born in Malby, this video she really enjoyed, thank you :)
Thank you for posting this, i came from scotland in 1979 to maltby. i miss the place, lovely people. my best friend owned the queens, great times being a teenager in maltby. being fostered by a lovely mining family back then was a life saver back then - such generous people. i left in 1990....it was originally called bymalt in the domesday book.
Great video of my home town left over 20 years ago brought back many memories running and cycling around those streets 🙂. My pal lived on the Sandbeck estate, so we camped out in tents in the private woodlands.
He lived on Sandbeck Estate? That's amazing, I wish I'd have got into that, but with it all being private it's nigh on impossible with CCTV and security everywhere nowadays. Not that I would trespass, but it'd be awesome to look at it.
Glad you liked it :D
@@TheVillageIdiot Yes there's a few houses on there and his dad & mum both worked for the Earl of Scarborough. I always remember it's a very long road up to the houses and I had to always have visits planned, if I ever visited Stuart unannounced we would have a guy with a shotgun stop us. Quite frightening as children to be honest.
I'm watching your videos, I grew up in Rotherham, live in Blackpool now and haven't been back in a long time, so I'm enjoying reminiscing. As kids we got all over the borough on our bikes so lots of memories for me 😀
Have you done a Rawmarsh one? As can't see it in the listings.
@@garyphillips006 lovely memories. Me and a few did actually sneak in ha ha just a big place at the end of a very long road ha
This is great man, keep it up!
Appreciate it! Loads more to come local to Maltby yet, like Tickhill and Blyth
My own village not much has changed. I moved to Texas USA 2 year’s ago and aiming to visit this year. Also catcliffe brings memories as my gran lived there- I used to visit and know the area well
Thank you! :D
My best pal owned the queen's. In the 80s. Was heaven. I used to look up in awe at the bikers in there, blue and spud. Great times
You did good Andy, keep it up and maybe do some winter shots (frosty/snowy) of rural villages you won`t have long to wait.
When winter comes I won't be stopping. There'll be loads of snowy shots if the heavens open :D
hi andy great video i live in one of the apartments on firth cresant that was the old church
Wasn't sure if it was a church or a chapel, that's why I wrote "chapel-like" haha. A religious building anyway. Glad you liked it :D
Really nice video 👍🏻
