Dist:0.5km<br/>The picture shows the housing development on the Keswick Street ground of Castleton Moor Cricket Club who used to play in the Central Lancashire League. As the cricket club struggled into the 1980's, Mayfield Amateur Rugby League Club became partners in the ground but when the cricket folded in 1987, it passed to them. In 2005, Mayfield sold the ground for housing and moved into the nearby Butterworth Park to ground-share with Castleton Gabriels FC. The old cricket pavilion was on a slope to the left of the photograph and the extension to Keswick Street passes right over the old cricket square.

Dist:0.5km<br/>The manual lever is in front, but I doubt it works. In the distance is the landmark St Martin's Church in Castleton.
