Darfield, Little Houghton, Great Houghton, and Thurnscoe

I caught the X19 Barnsley bus to Darfield, it was the noisiest bus I've ever travelled on; everything was shaking, vibrating, rattling, and banging. I walked down to the River Dearne, and then continued to Little Houghton. I went along along the former pit lane to Great Houghton and then up onto the higher ground north of the village.
































I followed a couple of well defined paths which aren't shown on the map and ended up coming out at the lower part of the village. I joined what I think is a section of the TransPennine Trail [there are several alternative routes in this area] and headed east towards Thurnscoe where I popped in to see my dad for a few minutes before catching the bus home.
