       MIRFIELD IN PICTURES FREE SCREENSAVER       

Have you downloaded and installed the Mirfield screensaver yet? It is still available from here. The file will download as mip1.zip - simply unzip the file and save it to C:\WINDOWS\system32 (for Windows XP), where C is your hard drive. If you're running another version of Windows, just let me know. The download is guaranteed to be free from any form of malware and is a mere 842kB so it will download in a few seconds using a broadband connection. To date, 135 people have downloaded this screensaver. I'm also working on a new one, so - watch this space!

 

NEW!          DOMESDAY EXTRACTS          NEW!

Some time ago, I bought a copy of the Mirfield entry in the Domesday Book. To be honest, it's a very brief entry but still makes for interesting reading and provides an interesting perspective of Mirfield (Mirefeld) over 900 years ago. It was published in 1086 at the instruction of William the Conqueror. If you're interested, please take a look at Domesday Extracts. Now, just in case you're wondering - no, I'm not on commission!

 

NEW!   GENEALOGY & FAMILY HISTORY   NEW!

I get a good few visitors to this website who are researching their family history. This is evidenced by the number of entries in The Kirklees SiteRing, which can be found on the Useful Links page. GENUKI (genealogical information for UK and Ireland) have a very interesting page devoted to Mirfield and it can be found at GENUKI: Mirfield.
