.....Amanda Staveley who looks to be the brooker in this new takeover has a Doncaster connection,her mother’s family were from Bruntwood Grange Sprotborough . Her mother seems to have been a very good show jumper, whilst Amanda herself used to go out with Prince Andrew, after she had left school

The Rapers used to own the big house on the back road between Sprotborough and Cusworth. Helipad, tennis courts and the like. I think Lynn Raper was a showjumper for the British Olympic team in the 60's.
