Dist:0.3km<br/>This road climbs steadily from Milnsbridge and eventually reaches the old turnpike road at Blackmoorfoot. It was perhaps a feeder road from the townships on the western side of Huddersfield. These isolated terraces of houses often occur, and might be the result of the builder buying up a small piece of land that was not much good for farming – in this case it was rough land hemmed in by quarries along Guy Edge. The modern houses down Slant Gate on the left were built on quarried land.

Dist:0.6km<br/>This road nameplate is an extra one (there is one at the extreme left of the photo) and has evidently been transferred from Slant Gate in Kirkburton, as at the top it has 'Kirkburton UDC' in red letters.
