I have read somewhere about a tunnel in the cellar of one of the pubs. Think it might be old crown.

I'm surprised Mary queen of scots wasn't called Mary queen of South Yorkshire and surrounding districts! There can't be a tavern or large house round these parts she wasn't rumoured to have stayed at!

Tinfoilhat do you know Handsworth if you do you would know about the cross keys

I was a pupil at St Joseph's Handsworth in the early 1960s and someone told us about a tunnel under the garage/car sales place next door, which was derelict at the time.

Me and a mate climbed inside and found the tunnel leading out from the cellars. It was brick lined but full of cobwebs and dark and scary for an 8 year old! (If my mum had known (RIP)). We took torches back but only went in a few feet.

Did her Majesty nip over to Handsworth from the Wybourn for a couple or three snifters ?

Yes you are right. Found it again on Sheffield history website. It also refers to tunnels to the church.

Years ago, I happened to be working near Loch Leven in East Fife.

On a Sunday walk (everybody used to go for Sunday walks, before there was TV)

An old gentlemen points at an old ruin on the island, and said, "That's where Mary, Queen of Scots, escaped from".

There are amost as many MQOS prisons as there are Cromwell pubs!
