Old stone house on Rockwood Hill
This is on the west side of Greenside village. I think this could have been a farmhouse. It is shown on old O S maps dating back to the mid 19th century, from a time before the village was greatly expanded in the early 20th century. This was to house the miners working in the new large collieries.

Unusual double house on Rockwood Hill
This back to back house on Rockwood Hill Road in Greenside is probably Victorian in date. It may have been a farmhouse originally. Possibly, one house is older than the other which was added later as an extension. I have seen a few other examples in the area.

House at the top of Rockwood Hill
This is another of the old stone houses on Rockwood Hill Road which probably date back to the mid 19th century when Greenside was primarily an agricultural settlement. It was probably a farmhouse back then. This one is right at the top of the hill.

An aptly named house
This is High House, on Rockwood Hill Road, Greenside village. It is indeed a high house, near the top of the steep hill on the western outskirts of the village. This part of the village is mostly early 20th century terraces, or more recent houses, but this one looks older. There were a few houses, presumably farms, along this road in the 19th century, and this looks as if it is one of those.

Stone stile on Rockwood Hill
This leads to a footpath on the western edge of Greenside village. Stone stiles are rather unusual in these parts. Obviously well used by dog walkers, jubging from the notice.
