Site of railway sidings
The mown area of grass indicates roughly the line of the connection between the Midland railway line and the incline. The connection was on an embankment which has been completely removed and re-landscaped.

General store, Jump
There is a foundation stone on the corner of the building http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3549935 which leads me to think that this was originally a Co-operative store. The separate shop down the road to the right http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3549939 could well have been a butchery or bakery department; old maps show that it is clearly part of the same development. The foundation stone is dated 1891.
Update 2020: A former local resident has informed me that this was indeed the locoal Co-operative store.

Foundation stone, 221 Cemetery Road, Jump
Much of the inscription is eroded, and there is no indication of the body involved. There is a list of Directors on one side, headed by James Fairclough President, and the date of laying (1891) on the other.
Also visible is a cut bench mark on the right hand wall, equally much eroded due to the softness of the sandstone.
Update 2020: A former local resident has informed me that this was the local Co-operative store.
