Old milestone

The 6 miles from Barnsley, late 19C West Riding CC, milestone is just west of Coach Gate Lane which leads to the ancient Gunthwaite Hall. It is on a very narrow verge almost at the Barnsley/Kirklees boundary. Not well painted but in a very difficult place to work. It is Grade II listed 1314730.

Old milestone

Vegetation had to be cleared to reveal this West Riding CC milestone. It is one of 615 set up in 1893/94 for the newly formed West Riding Council all over its extensive 'territory' from Sedbergh in the north west to south of Rotherham and over the Pennines into Saddleworth. Over half are still in situ. It is on the south side of the A635 between Denby Lane and Lower Denby Lane.

A view of the 8 miles from Barnsley milestone under the arch of the railway viaduct at Denby Dale. Trains from Barnsley approach from the left and the station is a short distance to the right across the A636 Wakefield Road.

Old milestone

This is the last late 19C West Riding CC milestone between Barnsley and Shepley Lane Head. There would have been two more but they are missing. Many of the metal attachments had the foundry name on the bevel but the ones on this route haven't so we don't know where they were forged. On this milestone the four fixing points for the attachment to the backing stone can be seen. Grade II listed 1135325.

One of the five remaining West Riding CC milestones with a protruding attachment still to be seen on this route, A636, from Wakefield to Denby Dale. It is at the northeastern end of Denby Dale, although apparently this area was in Skelmanthorpe parish. It is close to the entrance to Putting Mill Walk. Grade II listed 1185069.

Gunthwaite Hall Barn near Upper Denby

The barn at Gunthwaite Hall was built in the middle of the 16th century, for Godfrey Bosvile (1520-80) lord of the manors of Gunthwaite and Oxpring. It is a northern aisled barn with a low pitched roof, stone walls up to three-quarter height and then timber framing to the eaves. There are some fine tudor doorways for pedestrian access as well as two large wagon doors on each side. The barn is eleven bays long and now divided in two. Otherwise it is more or less unaltered except for repairs. It is still in agricultural use, being used for animal shelter and crop storage.
