New Hey Road, Rastrick
This road was constructed around 1806, and was lined by ribbon development during the 19C. There were gaps between the terraces of houses, and in the one shown here there is a laburnum tree in flower. Below it is the track that leads to Badger Hill Cricket Ground.

Regent Close and telephone pole, New North Road, Rastrick
Not a very good view of this little council housing estate, but the telephone pole has a remarkable number of wires radiating from it.

Entrance to cricket ground, New Hey Road, Rastrick
There is quite a large area of 'waste' ground' here, which must be valuable as a potential building site. Notice the skeleton of a seat.

New Hey Road, Rastrick
Just above the 'waste' land near the entrance to the Badger Hill cricket ground. There is a through passage big enough for a cart, which led to a building at the rear. The house above the opening belonged to the Woods who had a haulage business. By the 1950s they were running motor taxis and lorries, which were stored in the yard through the passage in what was probably the stables for their horses and storage for wagons in their earlier history. The Woods Rolls Royce taxis were often used to transport the New Road Sunday School cricket team to away matches.

The former Black Horse Inn, now Rastrick Spice, New Hey Road
The inn existed in 1852, but closed in 1913, a victim of a campaign to reduce the number of public houses. A fish and chip shop followed, and lasted at least until 1939.

Regent Close, New Hey Road, Eastrick
A pleasant estate of small flats built around a lawn. It replaced rows of small cottages that were probably built for workers at the nearby Badger Hill Mills.
