A SONG about Stairfoot roundabout made him famous and now Dave Cherry has rewritten his classic in frustration at changes to Birdwell roundabout.
Dave, 71, of Saxon Crescent, Worsbrough Bridge, says the new layout at Birdwell is ‘worse than Stairfoot’ and has altered the lyrics of his song from 2004 - which went on to make thousands for Barnsley Hospice through CD sales, and an accompanying music video sold on DVD.
The reworked song can be heard through a video Dave has created for the Chronicle which is available on YouTube. Find it here.
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
