Modern housing estate expanding Penistone to the north. Area of former moor land probably enclosed as part of Hoyland Swaine parliamentary award in 1809 (date English 1985). Surveyed enclosure is cut through by the later railway which means that there is only fragmentary legibility of the enclosed land. The origin of the former moorland landscape is uncertain though this area is likely to be moorland by the Roman period (see Bevan 2003 for discussion of environmental evidence in region).
