This field access road was formerly part of the A635 road from Barnsley to Doncaster, just to the East of the former mining village of Goldthorpe. When the Dearne Valley Parkway was constructed to improve sections of the A635, one of the places it by-passed was Goldthorpe and this section was made redundant as a through road when a junction from the former A635 road out of Goldthorpe was constructed to join the Eastern end of the Dearne Valley Parkway from a point near its horizon in this photograph. The redundant section of road is a dead end just behind the photographer's position.
