Compartment reservoir
Water bodies along the Brightley Brook are remnants of the industrial past, whose earliest record is Morris's Mill (Fustian) in the 1851 OS Map, by which time these reservoirs were extant. The site was subsequently developed into Pilsworth Bleach Works which were recorded in the 1894 edition. The segregation into neat compartments was not fully recorded and cannot be explained. Nowadays the water bodies are managed by the Pilsworth Fishery, and are delightful, though not fully accessible by the public.

Castle Road
The wonderful paving of Castle Road as it descends from the eponymous property towards the site of Pilsworth Bleach Works. People are standing at the much corroded iron bridge over the Whittle Brook. The sense of history in this area is inescapable.
