Sowerby Bridge FP135 behind Rough Hey
There appears to have been some landscaping here, and all trace of the path has gone. There are young saplings growing, which will eventually screen the houses from the wood. This part of the lower loop of FP135 is out of use, as people have followed the contour from the top of Rough Hey Scar and beaten a path to join the main line of FP135.

Sowerby Bridge FP135 approaching the rear of Rough Hey
This is the lower loop of the path, and it would seem likely that in the distant past it went to Rough Hey when it was a farm from this direction of from the south, where it is a shallowly sunken track sloping down through the wood.

Sowerby Bridge FP134, Norland
This path, along the edge of Rough Hey Wood, has been infested with Himalayan Balsam. However it was not too difficult to force my way through. Fortunately this plant does not sting or scratch! (I have read that it is edible, but don't intend to test this.)

Station House, Norland
Seen from the driveway to Rough Hey. The station was called Triangle after the nearby industrial hamlet, and was closed to passengers in the 1920s. It was on a branch line from Sowerby Bridge to Rippondon and Rishworth built by the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway in 1878. By 1955 it was only open to Ripponden for goods traffic, and closed completely in the 1960s.
