Description: | May 1961. Looking from the bottom of New Bank Street towards the crest of Daisy Hill and the row of terrace houses sloping down to the railway line. Most of the land is still agricultural with vegetables, small allotments and rhubarb growing predominating. The stone house to the left in the distance was Nobroyd House at one time occupied by the mill owner of the nearby mill. Textile manufacture at the mill ceased in the inter war depression after 60 years of operation. The chimney for the mill collapsed during a storm on 11th January 1983. The road to Daisy Hill is still a dirt track in this photograph.
