Harold Massingham lived in Mexborough through his childhood, and then Manchester from his university days, until moving with his wife Pat to Spain in the 1990s. He published three volumes of poetry in 1965, 1972 and 1992.[2]
His work was published in The New Yorker, and Alhambra Poetry Calendar.
Under the pseudonym ‘Mass’ he set crosswords for national newspapers and magazines for more than 30 years.[3] He also compiled chess puzzles.[4]
