Edlington Halt railway station (site), Yorkshire

Opened in 1912 by the Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway as the terminus of their Dearne Valley Railway from Wakefield Kirkgate, this station closed in 1951. The halts on this line were apparently made of old sleepers with an old railway carriage for shelter. Some later excursion trains ran from here until 1966. The line was on an embankment and crossed over the main road by bridge, running parallel to and above the side road, being also partly over what is now the fire station. A sloping path led up to the station from the far left of this image. All trace of the railway has been obliterated.

Cricket Without Balls

The sign on the wall to the right states 'No ball games to be played on this grass area'. Perhaps it doesn't include the cricket pitch?

Red Brick Church

Sitting on the southern edge of this square both the church and the road are dedicated to St John. The blue sign points to a recreation ground.

20 Red Bump

This lonely looking speed bump reminds drivers that the limit is 20mph. The housing was originally built to house the families and miners of the nearby coal mine.

A1(M) to J36

This section of the A1 is designated motorway status as it passes Doncaster. The sign is for J36 which is in the next square north and west of this one.
