Blocked footpath off Barsey Green Lane
This is Ripponden Footpath 72, which is caption 'path' or FP on OS maps old and new. It runs alongside the parish boundary down to Shaw Head. A short section is preserved in this garden, but has walls built across it. Beyond the garden I suspect that it will have become overgrown.

The western end of Elland Footpath 49
As it leaves the garden of the house seen to the left, the path goes across the parish boundary. The snow is typical of the drifts that have been taking ages to melt in the continuing winter temperstures.

Wall across Ripponden FP72 at Greetland Wall Nook
This footpath is occupied by trees as it follows the parish boundary wall up from Bowers lane at Shaw Head, but you can walk up the field edge alongside it. However at the top of the field you are faced with this wall, with no sign of a stile. If you climb over it you are in someone's garden, and you would have to find a way through it to meet Elland FP49. No doubt the owner would deny the existence of the path, but it is there on the council's rights-of-way map and is captioned 'Foot Path' on the 1932 1:2500 map.

The Spring Rock, Greetland
This seems to have been a farm called Spring Beck in 1850, then Spring Rock in 1895, and with the word 'Inn' added in c.1935 (from OS six-inch maps).
