Disused well, Royd Lane, Cartworth
Now walled off from the road. The well seems to be under vegetation in the centre of the retaining wall on the right. Marked as a trough on the 1850 6" map.

Lane Bottom Farm, Royd Lane, Cartworth
This is almost opposite Upper Water Side, an example of how farms and houses tend to cluster together and sometimes form a hamlet. The main building has a wide outshot to the rear, and the near half of the building seems to be a barn or store, as apart from the first floor loading door in the gable-end, there is also one on the ground floor facing the lane.

Upper Water Side, Royd Lane, Cartworth
This farm appears in two squares as the grid line goes through it. The part of the building on the left looks as if it was a barn with a weaving workshop above. Until the mid-19C many farmers in this area supplemented their income by handloom weaving.

Old Yew Lane, off Royd Lane, Cartworth
This was a lane through to Hill House Road, but now looks to be just a driveway to Old Yew, the house in the photo. This was on the 1850 map, but might have been altered later in the 19C. There is also a modern house to the right.

View of Hinchliffe Mill from Acre Lane, Cartworth
The subject GR is the field with the cow; beyond that is the hamlet of Hinchliffe Mill, which looks to be worth exploring. The hillside opposite is in Austonley township, and has a maze of little lanes.

Hinchliffe Mill
This former textile mill has now been largely demolished. This block facing the mill pond is believed to be standing in poor condition but the chimney has gone.
