Under Bank

Old milestone One of the 615 milestones set up for the newly formed West Riding County Council in 1893/94.  Over half still remain by the roadside.  In the Contract they were to be painted blue with white letters but then black letters on white was used, perhaps easier to read.  This one on the west side of the B6106 just south of the junction to Dunford Bridge was black with all legends white when first recorded by the Milestone Society in 2002. By 2021 it had been repainted but the place names and mileages left unfinished.

Under Bank is a small village located in the Holme Valley, West Yorkshire, England. Situated along the River Holme, it lies just south of the town of Holmfirth and is part of the metropolitan borough of Kirklees. Under Bank is nestled amidst the picturesque countryside, surrounded by rolling hills and idyllic farmland.

The village has a rich history dating back to the 18th century when it was primarily a weaving community. The textile industry played a pivotal role in its development, and remnants of the old weaving cottages can still be found scattered throughout the village. Today, Under Bank is a charming residential area, with a tight-knit community that values its heritage.

The village offers a peaceful and tranquil atmosphere, making it an attractive destination for those seeking a break from the hustle and bustle of city life. Visitors can enjoy leisurely walks along the River Holme, admiring the stunning scenery and perhaps catching glimpses of the local wildlife. The surrounding countryside also offers numerous hiking and cycling trails, providing ample opportunities for outdoor enthusiasts.

Under Bank benefits from its proximity to Holmfirth, a vibrant town known for its connection to the popular television series "Last of the Summer Wine." Holmfirth offers a range of amenities, including shops, restaurants, and cultural attractions, all within a short distance of Under Bank.

Overall, Under Bank is a delightful village that perfectly encapsulates the charm and tranquility of the Yorkshire countryside. It offers a wonderful escape for nature lovers and those looking to explore the region's industrial past.

Old milestone At Hade Edge where the minor road to Dunford Bridge leaves the B6106 with its back to a house wall, is another of the 1893/94 WRCC milestones.  This one has silver painted letters on a black background.  These milestones are now, usually, painted white with black legends but this is well kept and easy to read.

Washpit Mill - steam engine Agnes is one of my favourite engines but is no longer at this location, indeed the engine house's site has been cleared.

Agnes is a horizontal tandem compound condensing mill engine built in 1909 by Pollit & Wigzell of Sowerby Bridge. The Corliss valve cylinders are 18" & 36" bores by 4' stroke. Operating speed was 80 rpm on steam at 160 psi and it developed 600 indicated horsepower. The 16' flywheel drove via ropes to a large alternator next door and to some limited machinery in part of the mill. The engine was in regular use until early 1980 and was then run just for show, usually on Friday afternoons.

This end on view shows the combined jet condenser and single acting air pump. The big green drum above is an oil separator that removed oil from the exhaust steam so that the condensate could be used in the mill's processes. The little black cylinder to the left is a vacuum operated trap that discharged the oil that had been caught (best not to think where it might have gone).

This view is down the side with the valve gear. The big lump in the middle is the low pressure cylinder with the high pressure cylinder beyond. The black object on the left is the combined jet condenser and single acting air pump.

This shows the high pressure cylinder valve gear under the control of the Lumb governor and regulator. In the background the crank is in the correct starting position, ready to start turning as soon as the stop valve is wound open. The three ropes bottom right drive the governor.

This shows the low pressure cylinder with the jet condenser and air pump behind it. The big green vessel is the oil separator. Everything was kept in spotless condition by the engine's last driver (or tenter) - Herbert White. The engine is now at Markham Grange Steam Museum near Doncaster.

This view is from alongside the high pressure cylinder looking towards the crank. The latter is in the starting position and a few moments later the engine was running. This is Pollit & Wigzell's patent three piston rod design with the two low pressure rods passing either side of the high pressure cylinder. The shiny rod coming from the right hand edge is one of the low pressure rods. This made for a slightly shorter and more compact engine. The plastic pipe above the engine is not original and was a replacement condensing water supply. The little shelf on the end wall once held a gas meter.

Washpit Mill - boiler feed pump This is Pollit and Wigzell's standard three throw feed pump driven off the main engine next door. It was in the same space as the flywheel and rope driven alternator in the room next to the engine house. I visited this site quite a few times before the engine was finally removed in 1998 for re-erection at Markham Grange Steam Museum.

This is the flywheel next door with the rope grooves and the wooden boarding over the spokes. The boarding prevented the flywheel stirring up a gale. As re-erected at Markham Grange Steam Museum it does not have the boarding. The teeth around the rim are for barring the engine round. This was originally by a small steam engine but more recently an electric motor had been installed. This installation was beautifully kept and even more than 40 years after I first saw it (about 1976) I still have very fond memories of it.

This shows the Lumb governor with the modified Wilby regulator and an electric stop motion. The three piston rods of the patented 'three-rod system' are seen towards the bottom. The blurring of the governor's balls and the horizontal position of the operating lever below the centre weight both indicated that the engine was running at its operating speed. This was always a treat.

Behind is the crosshead with the three piston rods that are the feature of Pollit & Wigzell's patented three rod design.

Old milestone At the entrance to Lydgett Farm on Moor Lane, Netherthong is this out of place milestone.   It had been used as a gatepost at SE119092 and then on the top of a stone wall.   It has mileages to Penistone (penyston) 8 Miles, this face, Marsden and Huddersfield with pointing hands.  It is mentioned in WB Crump, Huddersfield Highways Down The Ages P146/147 and may have been at the crossroads Bradshaw Road/Wilshaw Mill Road near where it was used as a gatepost.
