Old milestone
One of the 615 West Riding CC milestones set up in 1893/94. The contract to erect these milestones was won by Gill and Frank Stead, stonemasons, of Mirfield. They had to be erected all over the old West Riding within 12 months and they achieved that. This one is at the end wall of Attorney Croft. a relatively new build. A few years ago a local painted many of these milestones in this area. The mileage to Holmfirth on the right hand side is ¾ Mile.

Milestone and Attorney Court, Dunford Road, Holmfirth (Wooldale)
The milestone is so sunk into the tarmac footway that I think it must be 'in-situ' and the driveway of the recent development has been positioned to avoid it.

The River Ribble downstream of Dover Road, Cartworth
Still artificially straight although well downstream of the former mills. There were filter tanks on the left in the mid 20C. I presume that these filtered water that had been used in industrial processes prior to discharge into the river.
