This is the junction at the bottom of Hurlfield Road and Gleadless Road. Hurlfield Road drops down the valley side via a 1 in 6 gradient to join up with Gleadless Road which continues NE towards Heeley. Notice the newer looking lower brickwork to the house immediately behind the "Give Way" sign (centre, left). This was necessary a few years ago when the brakes of road roller were release by vandals as it was parked a little way up the hill behind the photographer.
