View south along Green Lane (footpath Halifax 589) towards Bank Top. The area to the left of the picture has been extensively quarried and backfilled during the twentieth century. Evidence of this activity can clearly been seen in the humps and hollows on the field. Limited sandstone extraction still takes place at Beacon Lodge Quarry, just out of shot. Halifax town centre is less than a mile away down the steep hillside to the west.
