The Nobbly Ostrich
Mexborough isn't well known for being the birthplace of The Nobbly Ostrich. In May of 2018, Robin Saltwound went around the town putting up posters which read "MEXBOROUGH - THE BIRTH PLACE OF THE NOBBLY OSTRICH". He was given a warning by a police officer, and the posters were taken down.
