We want to hear your memories of royal visits to Rotherham

WHAT are your memories of royalty coming to Rotherham?

Perhaps you rubbed shoulders with Princess Diana on her visit to the town in 1991?

Did you see Princess Margaret on her South Yorkshire tour in 1953?

Or were you lucky enough to have a chat with the Queen Herringthorpe Leisure Centre the Queen in July 1975?

We are putting together a special publication this spring focusing on

the Royal Family, which will feature all our archive pictures of past

and present visits to Rotherham, and we want to hear from you.

Some readers have already got in touch to tell us fascinating stories and show us their previously-unseen photos of royal visits from throughout the years — but we would love to hear and see even more.

If you have any pictures of any royals visiting the borough or

memories of meeting them, get in touch with our newsdesk by

emailing [email protected] or calling us on 01709 768000.

You can also send us your photos or memories through Facebook  or on Twitter to @rotherhamtiser.
