This is on Lindley Moor Road, opposite Crosland Road. An 18C guide stone points the way to Halifax down this lane, when all the routes in this area were no better than packhorse tracks. It is deliberately obstructed, but this is probably just to discourage fly-tipping as the lane is now severed by the motorway.
