18th century housing along the High Street in Silkstone. Polygon also contains pubs and small shops. There has been demolition of parts of terraces and some modern infilling. Housing is built on probable former burgage plots running perpendicular to the High Street. There is partial legibility of these plots as most buildings face onto the road with long thin gardens behind. The Silkstone Wagonway ran along the High Street in the south of the polygon carrying coal from the collieries at Silkstone Common to the Barnsley Canal. This was built in 1809 and closed in 1860. (Bayliss 1995, 65). There are no remains of the route remaining.
