Pontefract Barracks Field Panorama

This is the Barracks field. On the Barracks field's far side, in the middle, you can see the Barracks (over Wakefield Road). Originally an army barracks, in the mid-late eighties, the building became a pub - but it is now a business centre. To the right of the Barracks is the Yorkshire Rifles building - and to the right of that, Kings Mead. On the photograph's far right, the houses are Alden Crescent. The Barracks field is used for football matches, dog-walking, and as a through route. This photograph is taken from Mill Hill Lane.
