Old and new at Warsop Vale
On the left the back of one of the traditional terrace houses on West Street; beyond is new housing on the newly constituted East Street. The crossroads sign is currently inaccurate!

Warsop Vale
View across the green from West Street. The north and east sides of the village are being redeveloped with new housing. This is a view looking roughly north north east, so the houses on the north side are on East Street, a nice whimsey continuing the odd naming of the existing streets - West Street on the south side and North Street on the west side. The east side of the village has always been named King Street.
The new housing is aimed at revitalised what had become a depressed and desolate community following closure of the local colliery in 1989.

The old school, Warsop Vale
Long since converted to industrial use, even this seems to have gone by the board with the premises currently empty. The school was built in 1901, contemporarily with the rest of the village to serve the local colliery.

Old postbox at Warsop Vale
It's unclear why this box should have been abandoned and replaced with a new one http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2335524. It is built into what is now the Malcolm Sargison Centre, the local community services point.

Corner of Greenshank Road and West Street
In Warsop Vale. The corner building was once the home of Warsop Vale Mini Market - no longer operating. It was also the home of the Malcolm Sargison Resource Centre which has also closed indefinitely.

Watch out for cyclists
A necessary warning in view of the careful placing of the village sign in the direct line of the cycle path!

Closed shop on the corner of West Street
The old mining village of Warsop Vale is without any form of retail premises. The postbox (Warsop Vale ref. NG20 83) replaces a wallbox in the building opposite, which still remains in situ http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2335530.

Warsop Vale, Notts.
The footpath ahead leads across Sookholme Moor with an option, after 5 minutes walking, to turn westwards towards Bully Lane in order to reach the hamlet of Sookholme. A few paces behind the photographer lies the eastern edge of the village of Warsop Vale on the B6031.
