View towards Emley Mast from Huddersfield Road, Shelley This is a revisit to the first geograph for the square: <a href="https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/123985">SE2011 : Radcliffe Wood, near Shelley</a> taken in February 2006. Radcliffe Wood is on the left. A young tree has grown and the hawthorn hedge makes the viewpoint a bit uncomfortable. The slender mast to the right of Emley Moor mast is a temporary one. "A temporary 310m mast was erected to May 2018 to enable transmissions to continue whilst the existing mast’s antennas are being modified to prepare for the 700MHz clearance and interruption of the broadcasts are not allowed. It was never made clear how long the temporary mast would be up for, but mid to late 2021 would seem a good guess, being as they were advertising its sale (for collection...) from that date !"

Stream alongside Brook House Lane, Shelley It is not clear from maps whether this flows through Brook House Mill or Barncliffe Mills, but either way it joins Shepley Dike and is its longest tributary.

Warning sign for low bridges There are two bridges here: the further carries the Barnsley - Huddersfield railway and the nearer used to carry the Clayton West branch of the Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway. This line was closed to traffic in 1983. Immediately to the left of the bridge is the terminal station of the Kirklees Light Railway, a narrow gauge heritage railway that runs between here and Clayton West on the original trackbed.

Tree-lined path to Emmanuel Church I think these are flowering cherry trees and, if so, would provide a beautiful approach to the church in Spring.
