Elland Road, Ripponden, Soyland
The view from the junction with Halifax Road. The shop on the right has a taking-in door, so the first floor was presumably a warehouse. In the middle distance the parapets of the new bridge (part of the turnpike road) can be seen, and in the distance the former school.

Cob Clough Culvert, Ripponden, Barkisland
This is where the Cob Clough stream enters the River Ryburn, seen from the packhorse bridge. In the 18C there was a disastrous flood which caused the culvert to burst and wash coffins and bodies out of the graveyard, some of which lodged in trees downstream - quite a grisly story!

Ripponden Old Bridge
A packhorse bridge that existed in 1307 and has been rebuilt several times since. Although narrow, it is still open to motor traffic, with a 5t weight limit. Also what is probably a sewer pipe, bridging the River Ryburn at a low level.
