The route of Smithson's Tramroad, north from Dewsbury Road
The tramroad was built in 1798 from Low Laithes to Thornes Wharf. Even though this section fell out of use between the 1850s and the 1880s, its route is marked by the hedged boundary. In 1850 a foundry was mapped on the far [east] side of the hedge. This [west] side was empty land, except for the tramroad, but by 1890 Manor colliery had opened here.

Route of Smithson's Tramroad crossing the Dewsbury Road
Heading south-east towards Thornes Wharf. The tramroad headed down the side of the terraced houses, which is why the end one has an angled end wall. However the houses were built at least 30 years after this section of the tramroad fell out of use, maybe even 70 years later!
