Bank Coffee House, Swinton
Formerly a Yorkshire Bank (?) branch. The Bank Coffee House closed down in August 2022 - it got good reviews. Fully licensed Coffee House opened September 2014, refurbished under new ownership 2 years ago. Just one of many that are going the same way.
Swinton station
Three platforms on the 1990 station after rail services restored following closure of the previous station in 1968.
River Don Navigation at Swinton
Looking south towards Rotherham, no longer an industrial waste land as nature reclaims its own.
Mexborough station car park
Every picture tells a story.
1990s investment in the Don Valley as the run down of coal mining came to an end.
Restoration of rail links that had been savagely cut in the 1960s brought a large park and ride car park.
More recent cut backs in services through the Don Valley due to Covid have ensured there's plenty of free parking space today.
Colliery wheel in St Thomas's churchyard
Commemorating Kilnhurst Colliery which was operational between 1858 and 1989. Commemorative colliery wheels like this are often located in former mining areas but this is the first I've seen in a churchyard.
A grand entrance to a field
Presumably intended as the gateway to a development which, for whatever reason, has yet to be built.
