See also this photograph by Alan Heardman:- Image - - - An OS map surveyed in 1914 and published in 1921 shows that this section of the Five Pits Trail, which runs between Grassmoor Country Park through to Timber Lane, largely follows the Midland Railway's Pilsley Extension line. However at this part of the trail the route of the old trackbed lay some 40m away in the field to the right.
