The Junction community centre, Hexthorpe Road
Shown as an inn on the 1903 map, and (at least in later years) called the Rising Sun, since 2004 this has been a community centre established by the Methodist church. See https://thejunctionhexthorpe.com/our-story/

Doncaster Cherry Tree station (site), Yorkshire
Opened as "Cherry Tree Lane" in 1849 by the South Yorkshire Railway as the terminus of its line from Swinton, this station quickly became just "Cherry Tree" and closed to passengers in 1852 when trains were extended to the current Doncaster station. It remained open as "Cherrytree" goods station into the 1960s.
View north east towards central Doncaster. The station was to the right of the road, behind the current fencing. Further to the right but out of shot is the Swinton-Doncaster railway line.

Kirk Street, Hexthorpe
The street is on of a few in the area that have been pedestrianised to the extent of no motor vehicles being allowed 'except for loading'. According to the Doncaster Free Press, this part of Hexthorpe was being plagued by antisocial behaviour, and has been made the subject of a PSPO (Public Space Protection Order) with extensive CCTV coverage. Maybe it has worked, or maybe Saturday afternoon is a quiet time anyway, but I saw no problems as I passed through.
