Untitled[edit]

The area described is now refered to as Dearne Valley. The OS map says the same. There seems to be alot of inititives and organisations using the term as well. So I'll add references to them when I don't have to be up in 3 hours.

To the person that made Goldthorpe a village, well that's a moot point. Goldthorpe had a Town Hall which is the definition of a town. However the Town Hall was called the Dearne Town Hall, after the name of the Urban District Council which it contained. Since there's no settlement called Dearne, I personally take that as meaning that Goldthorpe is a town. I've left your modification though as I really can't be bothered changing it back!BaseTurnComplete 20:52, 15 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Denby Dale viaduct[edit]

It's a shame, because it's a nice picture, but I'm not sure if the Denby Dale viaduct is a representative picture for this article, although it is geographically accurate being close to the river's source, since the term "Dearne Valley" tends to be used to refer to that part of the river valley downstream of Barnsley to its confluence with the Don at Cadeby.BaseTurnComplete (talk) 12:33, 7 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
