Dist:0.1km<br/>Neglected milepost on Oldham Road (A62). Distance to Huddersfield on this face; on the other, to Oldham. Of a familiar pattern in Yorkshire, retained although Delph has been in Lancashire (so some say!) since 1974.

Dist:0.2km<br/>Bailey Mill closed down in 1996. Since that time it has remained empty and its future is uncertain. The old Delph branch line (locally known as The Delph Donkey) once ran along the front of the mill in the picture with the last passenger train running on Saturday 30th April 1955. The old track bed is now a popular recreational route to Dobcross and Uppermill. Although the railway infrastructure has mostly been removed, the architecture of the bridges, walls and buttresses remains.
