Stone wall on the south bank of the Barnsley Canal
Presumably a wharf wall, as the towpath is on the opposite [north] side. If so it must have been early, because it is not present on maps from the 1840s onwards. The Barnsley Canal was built to carry coal out of the Barnsley coalfields. It opened in early 1802 and formally closed in 1953.

Tinker's Pond
Urban legend says that the two ponds are bottomless. Not sure about that, however we saw a Roach being caught. Walking further down you come to a bridge over the old Barnsley canal, Martin Speck photo shows this Image

Barrier on the Barnsley Canal near Smithies
This section of the canal ran from Barnsley to Barnby Basin; it was constructed in early 1802 and closed in 1953. This barrier appears to have been constructed more recently but, other than as an unofficial footbridge, its purpose is not clear.
