Looking west down Old Rough Lane which was named after the wooded area called Old Rough. The tower block to the right is Oak Tower, its flats are now being sold privately. Nearby, at the junction of Old Rough Lane with County Road (originally School Lane), stood an old Church of England school which was pulled down in the early 1970s. This school was erected in 1806 and until the 1950s was the only school in Kirkby.
