Pontefract is a historic market town in West Yorkshire, England, near the A1 and the M62 motorway. Historically part of the West Riding of Yorkshire, Pontefract is one of the five towns in the metropolitan borough of the City of Wakefield.
Pontefract's motto is Post mortem patris pro filio, Latin for After the death of the father, support the son, a reference to English Civil War Royalist sympathies. Pontefract was the site of Pontefract Priory, a Cluniac priory founded in 1090 by Robert de Lacy dedicated to St John the Evangelist.
Pontefract has been a market town since the Middle Ages; market days are Wednesday and Saturday, with a smaller market on Fridays. Pontefract's deep, sandy soil makes it one of the few British places in which liquorice can successfully be grown.
There are a number of supermarkets in Pontefract which include a Tesco and Morrisons which are located opposite each other. The old Pontefract General Infirmary on Southgate.
Fifteenth century Robin Hood ballads place the outlaw's activities in the forest of Barnsdale, the southern edge of which borders Pontefract. In particular, the medieval ballads make specific reference to the village of Wentbridge, which is an outlying village of the modern town of Pontefract.

Presented by Yorkshire's own amatuer documentary film maker Colin The Head, Colin delves deep into the local legend's tale to uncover a wealth of evidence and historical places around the Barnsdale and Pontefract area to back up the claim of the real Yorkshireman known as Robin Hood.

Brookes Paranormal: Robin Hood Legacy Paranormal Investigation
MAKE SURE TO LIKE OUR FACEBOOK PAGE FOR UPDATES AND BEHIND THE SCENES STUFF:
Here are some highlights from our Paranormal Investigation at the Robin Hood Legacy Building, located in the city centre of Nottingham, England. Not much is known about the history of this place, but we think that whatever happened here in the past, can only be from the land and the fact it's near such a historic site of Nottingham Castle, where many events have occurred throughout the centuries. We believe by the end of that night, we came into contact with the spirit of a little boy, a woman and an evil man who wonders the stairs to scare the workers and visitors there.
