Crop field off Thorpe Lane
Probably a cereal crop, but the shoots are too small at this time in the year to tell which.
Course of former railway east of Dunningley Lane
Old maps show a four-track line in a shallow cutting here, which was the Great Northern's line branching off the Leeds main line and serving Bradford and Shipley via Laisterdayke. It would probably have been used mainly by goods trains; Tingley station was a short way west of here, but closed in 1954. The cutting has been filled in to ground level, but surprisingly the surface has not been turned to agricultural use and there is an unofficial footpath along the route.
Dunningley Lane
The single-track road is shown as a public footpath along its full length, so probably a private one as far as motor traffic is concerned. A locked gate across it beyond the group of houses in the distance prevents through traffic to the A653 anyway.
Saxton Cottage, Dunningley Lane
The name is explained by a plaque on the wall of the house claiming that Christopher Saxton, cartographer to Elizabeth I, was born in 1542 on or near this site. His Wikipedia entry, however, says that Saxton was probably born in Sowood near Ossett but later moved to Dunningley. The present house is modern.
