1
Holmroyd Wood, near Oldfield
The trees with dark green leaves in April must I think be holly, although these are normally below the deciduous trees of the wood.

Upper end of New Dam, near Netherthong
New Dam is the name on a 1960s six-inch map, but it is named Holmroyd Reservoir on the 1850 map. I think that this reservoir stored water for Deanhouse Mills. It has been drained, but the bed is still wet judging by the stems of last year's bulrushes.

Row of trees, near Oldfield
Sometimes a row of trees like this indicates the line of a former hedgerow, but in this case the 1850 six-inch map does not show one.
