Old milepost On the A621, Baslow Road, Totley this milepost becomes more and more neglected.   It is in a very vulnerable position opposite houses that often have parked cars making the road narrower.   The foundry name is down the front spine DARWIN & CO SHEFFIELD.   Their name is also seen on gully grates and doubtless they cast other products.   There was a Sheffield, Baslow, Owler Bar turnpike that lasted from 1803 to 1880 so this post may date from the middle to late 19C.

The Pinfold Garden, Hillfoot Road, Totley "The original use of this area as listed in the 1847 awards was for impounding stray cattle and horses and held by the pinder until a fee was paid,namely " a pinfold". Totley and District Environment Society created and funded this project in the late 1970's, assistance with labour was by students of Totley Polytechnic College. The water troughs were raised from their original position 8 feet below the present ground level. These had been fed from a spring. They were buried beneath tipped rubbish for almost forty years. Ownership is by the residents of Totley." From a descriptive plaque in the garden
