With an old Godfrey map you can find the location of several important worksand some remains of works now preserved. The main line connections for engines to leave the works on Jack lane are evocative...

When I was at Cockburn High School (then at Burton Road) in the late 1950s the sports lessons included a cross country run that used to go by the old Parkside ground of Hunslet rugby club.
