Dist:0.4km<br/>This house, on the B6114 road, looks like a vicarage with its late-19C Gothic style but does not admit it by a sign at the gate. However on OS Explorer it is marked 'Vic'.

Dist:0.6km<br/>The road number is out-of-date, as it was changed to B6114 many years ago (I think between 1969 and 1978). The sign has Worboys lettering, but still has the numbers and names for each direction in separate boxes. (I have since noticed that this layout is still used, with two examples on Canal Road, Bradford, southbound immediately south of the ring road viaduct, and one in Brighouse on Wakefield Road opposite the former Stotts Arms.)
