  • the best thing about penistone is the people decent people most of them
  • the sh*t public transport which is the gateway to sheffield.
  • It sometimes snows so bad its cutt of from the rest of the world resulting in NO college no school and no work. Fantastic. The breifly short summer.
  • How is it that nobody has mentioned Penistone Show, one of the biggest in the area? The second Saturday in September and always a good 'un.
  • named after a group of swingers back in the 60's
  • Lots of lovely walks all around Penistone, the old railway line is now a walking / cycle track, which is now part of the Pennine Trail.
  • Waddy's on Green Rd...well kind of, Chippy Jeff's - not the sponser of Sheffield Wednesday! (that's Chupa Chups)
  • its a lovey town and fast growing the town is full of history and the locols are all frindley and kind to help you in any way.
  • The fact that locals are oblivious to the fact that they live in a town with 'Penis' in the tile - Penistone, which incidentally is on the same railway line as WOMBwell - sexually depraved tyke trainspotters and all.
  • The wide range of chippies. And pubs. It's got some good history such as the great big viaduct collapsing with a train on disaster type thing.
  • The White Hart on a lazy Sunday afternoon. Penistone people are a bit scatty in a Yorkshire sort of way but generally OK and friendly. Everybody knows everybody.
