Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Public footpath and course of old railway. This northerly facing photograph was taken from a public footpath (centre foreground, through to the stile on the left) that connects 338154, Pilsley (ahead, left) with 635733, Tibshelf (behind the viewpoint, right).

The slight dip in the land at this point, and the hedge running diagonally across the picture, shows the course of an old railway line that once connected the Great Central Railway (to the north-east, ahead and right) with the Midland Railway (to the south-west, behind the viewpoint and left).

The house standing alone, in the distance on the right, was the 314803, which is on 314785, Pilsley. This building is the only substantial remnant of the railway that once ran through the village. The gap between this building and the ones to its left is the position of the cutting that carried this railway.
