Grey Fell Academy, Penistone Road, Fulstone
A very pleasant place to be at school, although at 275m AOD and north-facing it is perhaps cold in the depths of Winter!

Shepley Service Reservoir, Penistone Road
Service reservoirs are awkward to photograph, being on the top of hills! The water is pumped up to here, and then flows to Shepley by gravity. As it is treated water the reservoir has to be covered. This view is looking up the access drive from Penistone Road.

Old milestone
On the A635 from Shepley Lane Head down into New Mills and Holmfirth is a West Riding CC 19C milestone which is the last in the series east from Greenfield which used to be in Yorkshire. The tollroad from Greenfield to Shepley Lane Head was first enacted in 1823. The milestone is opposite Gate Foot Lane and a pub. This used to be the Crossroads PH then renamed Toss 'o Coin now derelict. This metal attachment has the name of the foundry on the bevel, Brayshaw & Booth/Makers/Liversedge. The stone is painted black. Grade II listed 1313617.

The Crossroads Inn
