Causewayed footpath off Shield Hall Lane
The path leads to Snape Wood farm and Higham and Dob Lane. The name of the houses to the right (Miry Wall), and reeds to the left, should give an indication of why the path needed to be paved.

Steep Lane bus terminus, Yorkshire
The bus route between Halifax and Steep Lane was first opened by Halifax Corporation, but by 1986 was operated by West Yorkshire Passenger Transport Executive. The route had narrow lanes with very sharp bends, precipitous hills and very limited clearances. Only the most senior and experienced drivers were rostered for this route. When I asked why double-deckers were used, I was told that 'single deckers are too long - they'd never get round the corners!'

Track to Hey End Farm
The farm itself is not visible in this photo, being over the brow of the hill; the pair of houses alongside the track may have been built for farm workers.
