Bolehill Lane, Crookes
These are Cocked Hat Cottages, that were built around 1860. The Unwin family owned a quarry on the Bolehills and lived here. This end of the building was a stable with hay loft. The un-surfaced lane that ran by was called Cocked Hat Lane, from which the cottages took their name.
Tinker Lane, which ends here at Bolehill Lane, rises here by 105 metres on its way up from Bole Hill Road. I once carried my wife all the way up.

The Bolehills, near Crookes
As you walk down Bolehill Lane there's nothing to suggest that this is a recreational area. No plaque, no map, no history. There are at least three other ways in and last time I looked there wasn't anything there either.

Bolehill Lane, Crookes
Bolehill Lane meets Toftwood Road, to the left and Toftwood Avenue, to the right. If you carry on straight across the junction and walk to the end of Bolehill Lane, before it takes a sharp bend to the right, there is a nice walk down to Clough Fields and several equally nice options to make your way down to the Rivelin Valley. I used to walk down there alone, when my age was in the single figures and there never was any reason to worry about doing so.
There is a very pretty walk, in the valley, that follows the river from Glen Bridge to Rivelin Mill Bridge. My wife and I have walked that and carried on through to Baslow and back.

Toftwood Road, Crookes
A familiar scene to me, from the age of seven. I lived at both the bottom of the road and then the top, from 1949 until 1973.
