20 Red Bump
This lonely looking speed bump reminds drivers that the limit is 20mph. The housing was originally built to house the families and miners of the nearby coal mine.

Rock outcrop
A temporary exposure of the dolostone of the Cadeby Formation (Permian, 250 million years old) on the development of Yew Gardens. It is quite a surprise to find that rock is so close to the surface, although the steep slope above the Don Valley migh be expected to have thin soils. The slope is being cut back here to make a terrace, and rock which is being produced is crushed on site along with demolition waste for use in other areas. See Image for the view of how the rock-face will be stabilised and finished.

Crib wall
The bare rock face exposed in the terracing work is being stabilised and landscaped with a timber crib wall. See Image for the view of what is behind the wall.
"A timber crib retaining system is a cellular mass-gravity retaining wall.
The finished structure’s inherent weight and collective mass allows it to retain the target material without being destabilized. It is constructed using individual sections of interlocking pressure treated timber to form a framework which is then filled with aggregate during assembly to add weight and stability to the structure". Thanks to TCRS Ltd. for that explanation.

New housing, Granby Road
Newly-completed houses alongside others still in build. The whole development is known as Yew Gardens, but whether the old road names will be retained is unknown. Geography is a bit hazy here at present!
