52 & 54 Moorgreen, Greasley
A pair of estate cottages, by E. W. Godwin for Earl Cowper of Beauvale, dated 1875. The design with its large expanses of window and tile-hanging is remarkably modern for its date. Listed Grade II.
The left hand of the pair has a remarkable set of garden gates http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/5967333 , only partly visible in this picture.

Gates at 52 Moorgreen, Greasley
These are rather out of place for a relatively humble dwelling http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/5967326 , but are of historical interest. They date from 1709 and were originally installed at Collins' Almshouses at Friar Lane in Nottingham http://www.abelcollins.org.uk/history.htm , and were moved here in 1973.

Hay field near Moorgreen
Looking west across a field ready for baling, probably quite a relief to the farmer this late in the year.
