Carr Forge Dam
This picture was taken in August 2007 on a beautifully warm day. This is one of my favourite spots to have a bit of a sit and a think. Even though there's a busy road behind me it always seems peaceful here.

Ducks on Carr Forge Dam
Since a youngster nearly killed himself when his fishing pole touched overhead live wires a few years ago, fishing on the dam has been banned by order of Sheffield Council, so the ducks have free rein. Here, mummy-duck sits on the stone keeping an eye on youngster. As I cycled past, another five of this year's brood appeared out from under the shelter of the bank.

Carr Forge Dam
In the Shirebrook Valley below Woodhouse were several waterwheels, possibly dating back to Tudor times, and part of Sheffield's early industrial heritage. This shows Carr Forge Dam with the water levels lower than usual because of the prolonged dry spell. The Shire Brook was in times past the border between the ancient kingdoms of Mercia and Northumbria and more lately between Yorkshire and Derbyshire, hence the name Shire Brook.

Stone Lane, Woodhouse
This road once served the sewage works and Badger Tools. Both have now gone, but the sewage works buildings have been converted into buildings for the Shirebrook Valley Nature Reserve. The end of the road (behind me) seems to be a place where old cars go to die, or be burned out by the local yoofs. The speed ramps are probably there to stop the yoofs damaging themselves too much when the cars are crashed into the gates at the end.
