aefibird Posted August 23, 2006 Posted August 23, 2006 South Yorkshire, UKThe good stuff:*A great mix of big city, large-and-small towns and rural villages*Beautiful countryside, especially in the West of the county where it borders the Pennines.*Plenty of parks and wildlife reserves, including the largest inland bird reserve in the north of England.*Magna Science & Technology Centre.*Bawtry Hall, Brodsworth Hall, Cusworth Hall and a million-and-one other huge stately homes. Lots of glorious architectural beauties to gawp at.*The finest example of a Norman Keep castle in Europe (Conisbrough Castle).*2 top quality Universities (Sheffield and Sheffield Hallam).*The greatest ice hockey team in the world (Sheffield Steelers).*Plenty of great bars, restaurants and pubs.*Generally good public transport links, with trams buses and trains running regularly.*May Day Festival in Wath, the highlight of which is the parish priest throwing bread rolls from the church tower at mid-day (it's a strange local custom, been going on since the 1600's!)The bad stuff:We also have cripplingly high levels of unemployment and drug and alcohol abuse.Since the close of the main source of industry, the coal mines, this area has suffered greatly and is only now starting to recover. There's a shortage of affordable housing, as well as of school places. Child poverty is at an all-time high and as many as 1/4 of children in some schools are in foster care or on the social services "at risk" register. We have one of the highest rates of heart disease and lung cancer in the country, as well as one of the poorest diets and the highest rate of smokers. Life expectancy is lower than in many other parts of England. "Was it really worth it? Only time and death may ever tell..." The Beautiful South - The Rose of My CologneSheffield Steelers!
