Pool in Wharfedale, never out of the news!

125 Years Ago – 1888

A most successful concert was given at St Wilfred’s School, Pool-in-Wharfedale, on Thursday evening, by the teachers and scholars of the day school. The programme was well received by a large audience, the musical drill being much appreciated. An enjoyable evening’s entertainment was given.

Thanks to the Wharfedale Observer for this piece.

Pool in Wharfedale’s plans for Tour banners foiled

Report from Wharfedale Observer:

Pool-in-Wharfedale has been working for months towards giving the world’s top cyclists a warm welcome by positioning a series of large customised banners, designed by local schoolchildren, along the route.

But the organisers have been left facing a funding black hole after hearing last week that their application for money from a Grand Depart cultural festival pot had been unsuccessful.
