The new road is expected to be built through the middle of Penny Pie Park as part of the authority's plans to ease traffic problems around the Dodworth Road crossroads.

Barnsley Council's plans have been criticised by campaigners after about £174,000 was allocated to improve the area after winning two awards.

Some of the work which had been funded by the awards was stopped before being finished when the gyratory system was announced.

The authority told the Local Democracy Reporting Service: "The council has already highlighted Penny Pie Park's assets, which it will look to retain as part of the planning proposal."

It's been home to wildlife artist Robert Fuller for 20 years.

When he first moved there, the land was bare and had little in the way of wildlife activity but Robert transformed it and even put in cameras to help him study the wildlife for his artwork.

Now, more than 60 species of birds and a host of owls, stoats and weasels call it home.

To celebrate the last two decades, Robert's put together a retrospective exhibition telling the story of how he transformed a barren plot into a wildlife haven.

He's also created this short film featuring a few of his wildlife stars:

The Golden Gallopers fairground ride, which has ridden into Leeds at Christmas time for the last 15 years, has returned once again to its usual city centre site.

But do you know the history behind this very traditional roundabout?

It was built in about 1881 by Norwich-based engineer Robert Tidman as a Dobby, an early type of roundabout usually propelled manually by the operator.

It was later rebuilt as an "overhead Galloper" by Thomas Walker.

It was eventually sold to James Crow in August 1963 who began the painstaking process of rebuilding and restoring it to its former glory.

He operated it at the famous Spanish City in Whitley Bay before moving to Sunderland and appearing at major fairs across the north including Newcastle Hoppings Fair and Hull Fair.

In 2014, the Gallopers was purchased by the Harris family, owners of Pat Collins Fairs, who have again undertaken extensive restoration work.
