At Waleswood Green
"Waleswood appears to have taken its name from an ancient hall, from which some respectable family may have driven away to quieter scenes; indeed, I am not sure that the hall any longer exists, though the colliery flourishes, as you may judge by the many inscribed railway trucks on the South Yorkshire lines. At the cross-roads there appears to have been a toll-bar, but that has been swept away too, and a somewhat villainous-looking hotel for colliers substituted, one of its glaring announcements being billiards. A long terrace stretches away from this house, and in front is a football field, where I found the younger men "roughing it" at dusk." - from "the Leeds Mercury" 1900

Rother Valley Park - North end
One of the difficulties of locating the photographer position on the 1940's map is that the lake wasn't there then and the river has been moved. On a crisp November morning (actually nearer 13:30), a couple of hardy souls were taking to the water on their jet skis. Brrr! The photo, looking north, looks towards Swallownest just visible in the distance.
