Rodney Hill, Loxley
Looking down towards the green, with the high Pennines on the skyline. The houses to the right mark the first stage, in the early 20th century, of the expansion of Loxley as a suburb of Sheffield. The road was part of the pre-development network.

The green at Loxley
A small area of green space at the junction of Loxley Road and Rodney Hill, alive with daffodils. This was the heart of old Loxley before the spread of housing. The further tree is a copper beech planted to commemorate the Silver Jubilee of King George V in 1935.

A small area of green space at the junction of Loxley Road and Rodney Hill, alive with daffodils, it was the centre of the original village. The signed bridleway simply cuts off the triangle between the two roads.

Drinking troughs at Loxley
There were clearly a series of troughs provided along Loxley Road - another survives at Stacey Bank http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2872934. The hilly nature of the area would have meant hard work for draught horses, and it was presumably also a drove road for sheep and cattle.
