Mills on Britannia Road and the Golcar Aqueduct
The foreground bridge is the Golcar Aqueduct carrying the Huddersfield Narrow Canal over the Colne (this being the Colne Valley). The background mills are clearly the same as in Humphrey Bolton's Image photograph but with less trees.

Ventilator, Britannia Road, Golcar
Several of these ventilators have a 'cockscomb' on the top, which might be part of a mechanism for moving a disc to partially close the vent opening. However it seems now to be purely decorative.

Transformer building, Britannia Road, Golcar
This appears to serve Stanley Mills. Possibly the wall continued to the right, with an arched entrance to the mills.

Mysterious brick building, Britannia Road, Golcar
What was this for? I have been informed that it was a bomb shelter. I can guess some of its present uses!

Recycling, Britannia Road, Golcar
My interpretation of this scene is that demolition and excavated material is dumped in the central pile and sorted into good pieces of stone on the right and crushed to make aggregate on the left. In the foreground is a line of tree-trunks, and out-of sight to the left a pile of logs, presumably for firewood. This area was previously covered in mill buildings, probably weaving sheds.

Mills on Britannia Road, Golcar
Seen here from across Manchester Road, in Linthwaite across the valley. There has been a considerable growth of trees on the steep sides of the valley since the mid-20C, hiding much of the valley-bottom industry. This part of Golcar was in Huddersfield County Borough.
