This w/e these 2 #restingheads were deinstalled after spending over a year at #churchfields as part of the @RoutedinB legacy which celebrated Barnsley town centre & stories associated with it. We love working in Barnsley & we love celebrating the people of this extraordinary town
From Monday, the Library at the Lightbox will be hosting 6 amazing artworks by @lennyandwhale

"This photo is of the Public Hall as I remember it before the building was closed from 1998 until 2009 for major alterations. Now in my 90s, my earliest memory of the hall is of the annual Good Friday Procession of Witness in the 1930s"
"Coming into town in the 1960s, shopping in the outdoor market & Woolworths with hollow wooden floors, Albert Hirst the butchers & sewing materials from Butterfields and Massies"
Our Routed exhibition closes this Saturday, 26 March
"Spending a large chunk of my pit wages on records at Casa Disco and struggling to pay my board!“
