Farrar's Funfair at Owlerton Stadium in the 1960's

[escort1]

Relations of the late John Farrar are putting a book together about this well known Sheffield funfair operator and wondered if anyone has and photographs or stories to tell about when Farrar's (not Whiting's who visited here in the 80's) used to visit Owlerton believed to be in the 1960's.

Thanks, but for some reason it is only Owlerton they are looking at, in particular photo's.

If they haven't already they need to contact the National Fairground and Circus Archives at University of Sheffield, webpage is https://www.sheffield.ac.uk/nfca

They have a wealth of information and photographs
