Blacksmiths gone but not forgotten it would have made a decent youth club. Something for the community and would have saved money. CLICK ON PHOTO FOR ENLARGEMENT

One of  the workmen taking the old concrete pad up ready for the new bench on the end of primrose lane, other benches are on Westthorpe green and the Cemetery. The Parish council have plans for more benches in the future. Good work by the council.

Why have other villages got momentoes to there mining history and killamarsh has’nt anything to show this was once a proud mining community and miners died getting coal to the surface at least these should be remembered. Please comment.

Has any resident of killamarsh heard what is happening with the canal it seems as though it has been forgotten.

The skateboard park is about to go ahead, it will open in june is it a good thing or bad. The people of killamarsh are very dubious about bringing more trouble to the bottom of  killamarsh the recent complaints about drunken teenagers running riot at the leisure centre, and surrounding streets. The authorities cannot cope with the youths now, so bringing more on to the scene will create more heartache for nearby residents .we think it would have been a good idea to have a skate board park if the situation with the youths had been addessed before it had been built. Nobody has said how it is going to be policed after it shuts at 10.00 pm, a few hundred youths turning out at that time cannot be good unless it is policed properly. We have also printed the piece out of the leader about the £300 millon leisure park that is going to be built on the rother valley surely the council could have saved our money and waited for this to be built as we feel sure the teenagers wont be wanting to go to the leisure centre when that is built. Please give us your comments especially if you live nearby the leisure centre
