The Suareabout
This new one-way system is shown in the plan above. Unlike a conventional roundabout, the traffic flow is anti-clockwise around the block. Drivers must now be prepared for traffic backing right up to the junction of Shrewsbury Road and Market Street. This might cause a severe traffic blockage on Market Street when buses pick up from the Bus Shelter. The new system became operational in January 2012 and was set up to deter HGVs from following Satnav instructions for Church Street.
Parking Locations. Also see Suareabout Plan above.
Ignore any signs which claim that parking is at the owner's risk. Every custodian has a 'duty of care' and the sign is illegal anyway. Public Toilets - Each side of bus shelter, opposite Pen church

The Boys in Blue
Penistone Cop Shop is now (2012) officially unmanned, even though there is police activity there. They no longer have a reception for public access. As the new '101' has not had much publicity, you might try Penistone Cop Shop's old 'Golden Line' number: 01226 736378 and pretend that you did not know any better. Otherwise, try 01226 736395 or 0114 2202020. Or flag down a passing cop car.
As always, 999 is the number for emergencies only but 101 has now been introduced for non-emergencies, to report less urgent crime or disorder or for general police enquiries.
Examples:
Crimestoppers - To report a crime anonymously call: 0800 555 111.
Non - Emergencies - If you have no sense of urgency, call: 101 (see above)
Emergencies - For real emergencies call: 999 or 911
Safer Neighbourhood Team - These hold monthly public meetings on policing matters: SNT Penistone
