School Street, Hemingfield
The main street of the original village, with a pair of stone built cottages which would probably have housed agricultural workers.

Coronation Terrace, Hemingfield
This terrace does not appear on the 1903 OS map, but I would nevertheless put the Coronation in question to be that of Edward VII in 1901.

Tingle Bridge Lane
Looking north from the eponymous bridge. The housing was doubtless developed for workers in the local coal mines.

New houses west of Tingle Bridge
On the north bank of the Elsecar branch of the Dearne & Dove Canal, at the site of Tingle Bridge Lock. The canal was built to carry coal from local collieries. It had opened by 1798, at least 30 years before any railway competition. It closed to traffic [due to mining subsidence] in 1928. It was officially closed in 1961. The towpath is well used by walkers and cyclists and a local group is keen to restore the canal.
