Some of the remains of the Summer House to NewLands Hall

Perched high above the surrounding landscape, with views towards Wakefield (& beyond)

The Hall is long-gone, & the Stables (to the right, in the first photograph) are in ruins
https://stanleyhistoryonline.com/newland-estate
I ride through the Hall on a regular basis

The blue circle for the location is wrong, the photographer is essentially where the 'N' of 'Normanton' is, & looking south-west; https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2091056

Farrars Toffee
Camwal Road
Starbeck

I know they have (had?) a shop in the town centre, but I have no idea if this is the sole manufacturing location?

Two benchmarks (one weathered away and its replacement, I guess) on the same pillar overlooking Ramsgate harbour on Paragon Promenade.

A new to me benchmark on St James church in Thurning

A few from my long weekend away in Thanet.

An enamelled Utility Plaque of unknown purpose.

An old garage with faded paintwork for Dominian Motor Spirit and all that's left of a Shell sign.

A Flush Bracket on Margate railway station.

And a Rivet on the steps at the end of Margate Harbour wall.

Snow Gates’
Woodhead Pass/A628
Very recently installed! (or they look like it!)
The western pair were being installed by the ‘quarry lay-by’, just east of Woodhead Reservoir, as we drove past

I’d not be surprised if a pair have also been installed on the ‘Snake Pass’/A57, & ‘Saddleworth Moor’/A635

My back is to them here

They're at the western end of the lay-by, so traffic can be turned round, that ignored the signs & flashing lights at 'Flouch Roundabout'

At the levels, we'd all like it to be in!!; https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6095502



As seen from the dam/road to Glossop (B6105)
Scarily low!

We were near the corner where the road on the dam, goes to the right, by 'Railway Cottages'; https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4533291
