Site of water mill in the Rivelin Valley
The River Rivelin is only 3 and a half miles long but once powered twenty mills, of which this was one. The pond which fed this mill has been drained but many others still survive. The oldest recorded mill was established in 1581 and the last working mill was still grinding scythes in 1939.

Roscoe Bank, Stannington
Centre of frame is where Liberty Drive meets Liberty Hill. When I was on the buses between 1963 and 1973, the route 88 Fulwood to Roscoe Bank ran here from Deer Park Road, across Stannington Road and down Liberty Hill. The passengers would alight and then the bus was reversed into Liberty Drive and then driven left back out onto Liberty Hill and parked in the first lay-by up the hill. I think we had about 20 mins to get to the City centre, outside what was Walshes and then another 22 mins up to Fulwood, via Hunter's Bar and Nether Green.
