One (45a) was published in the Worksop Guardian on 22nd May 1964 and contains a photograph of snow sculptures created after a snowstorm in March 1909, The other article was published on 15th May 1964, probably in the Worksop Guardian concerns Steetley Chapel and contains two photos of the church. J45 - 'STEETLEY CHAPEL By GAHAM J. HOWE Secretary Church Council of Steetley In 1875 Mr. Charles J. Cox wrote a work called "Notes on the Churches of Derbyshire" In the first volume sub-titled "The Hun- dred of Scarsdale" he comes to the Chapelry of Steetley. A lot has already been written about this Chapel and it would be folly to repeat here all its history from its questionable Saxon origin or its definite Norman beginning and onwards. ....'. 45a - 'Worksop In Days Gone By - No 11 This is rather a remarkable pic- ture in our series and is kindly loaned to us by Mr. J.A. Alsop, of 11 Merryweather Close, Ed- winstowe. it shows the sort of weather that Worksop and district people "enjoyed" in 1909. Modelled ins now on the road between Worksop and Edwin- stowe are these "animals" to commemorate a snowstorm of March 6th, 1909, and the sever- ity of the fall is clearly apparent.'.
