Booth and Fisher bus at Dronfield -1979
Booth and Fisher was a family bus business operating out of Halfway near Sheffield. By this time it had already been sold (in 1975) to the South Yorkshire Passenger Transport Executive, as indicated by the 4-digit fleet number, although it was some time before all vehicles were repainted into SYPTE brown and cream livery.
TCY662 was bought second hand from South Wales Transport in 1972, and is an AEC Reliance with Marshall bodywork, new in 1962.
This is one of a series of views featuring buses in the 60s, 70s, and 80s. http://www.geograph.org.uk/search.php?i=137652761

Trig point of Coal Aston
The trig point at Coal Aston is unusual in being half buried! Clearly, when installed by the OS it must have been set at ground level but subsequent work has seen earth piled around the pillar. The trig stands at the edge on an enclosure and as can be seen the ground extends for some distance still within that enclosure. Information from elsewhere is that the land is part of the garden or at least the property of an adjacent bungalow.
