Old milestone
This milestone half way between Calver and Gleadless was eventually found hidden under bushes opposite the metal field gate by Gooseberry Farm. Now it should be easier to find as grass, twigs and branches were cleared away. These milestones date from after 1825 when the toll road was extended to Gleadless.

Old Robin Hood, Lydgate Hill, Holmsefield
30 years ago this was a fashionable pub, often standing room only, with an excellent reputation for food.
Not any more, but there are two gastro-pubs within a mile to the west, and another five within a mile to the east. Which is quite surprising when you see how few houses there are hereabouts. 100-300 years ago there must have been a lot of thirsty travellers.
This is a windy spot. That windmill has blown over completely once in the last 18 months, and suffered a badly distorted propeller blade and motor casing quite recently.

Old milestone
Looking towards Holmesfield the position of the milestone half way between Calver and Gleadless which was almost hidden in vegetation can be appreciated.
