Site of former marshalling yards. Built in 1907 at a central location between the surrounding coal mines. Closed in the 1980s (shown as dismantled by 1989) as a result of the closure of the surrounding mines. (http://www.gcrollingstocktrust.co.uk/articles_output.asp?id=8&checkSource=sitemap). 19th century maps show this area to have been enclosed in a strip field pattern, possibly indicative of former open field agriculture. Fragmentary legibility of cleared marshalling yard, now crossed by 1990s 'Dearne Valley Parkway'.
