Rastrick Common was a main road from the year dot until the mid-20C, when it became unclassified. It could be on the line of a Roman road, and was part of the medieval main road from Wakefield to Elland, which was turnpiked in 1759. In 1806 it became the continuation of the New Hey Road over to Lancashire. The Globe Inn is one of two coaching inns along Rastrick Common.
