Cows still in mud
One of the cows away from the main group appeared to have very short legs. We realised that that was because it was standing in deep mud.

Horse and Jockey
The Horse and Jockey, which stood at the junction of Huddersfield Road and Standedge Road was a thriving pub in the 1950s and 1960s, when the A62 was one of the busiest routes across the Pennines. However, trade dwindled after the construction of the M62 motorway and this derelict shell is all that remains
