Footpath at Nab End, Longwood
Why such tall walls? The land on the right is otherwise unenclosed and has moorland vegetation, and there is a field of grass on the left. The cross-section of the wall shows how it is tapered from bottom to top.

Old milestone
Looking northwest up Longwood Gate, it can be seen how vulnerable this Hansom Cab Fare-stage stone dating from the late 19C is. The low wall and railings surround Longwood Grange Care Home. It is 2½ miles from Huddersfield town centre.

Old milestone
This Huddersfield TO and FROM milestone is on Longwood Gate near the entrance to Longwood Grange with the church nearby. The road is narrow and the stone has suffered damage to its front edge over the years. FROM/HUDDERSFIELD/2½/MILES is on the left face as the traveller in the Hansom Cab would be leaving the town centre on this route. TO is just visible on the right face of this late 19C stone set up to regulate the Hansom Cab Fare-stages.
