Railway House Creswell
Although the railway is now long gone this house still survives the demise of the railway branch line. This house was probably the Station Master's house given its location so close to the former railway station. Image

Miners Welfare
Perhaps one of the better examples of a former Miners Welfare building. The stone plaque above the door on the right acclaims "Publ(i)c Hal(l) Entranc(e)" The final 'l' in Hall and the final 'e' in Entrance are both smaller letters inside the previous letter. The 'i' in Public is also shortened to reduce the spacing. Difficult to tell if this was planned or an oversight when marking out for carving.

Creswell Model Village
Built in 1896 to house workers at Creswell Colliery, the village consists of a double ring of houses, separated by a service road, around a large green in the form of an extended octagon. The houses are built in a variety of different designs. After a period of decline from the 1980s, the village has been turned round with the help of an active residents' Association and a large Heritage Lottery Fund award.
