Good cuppa, interesting animals if you are with children. Easy access from TPT cycle route.

It is very nice and tasty and and the staff are very nice too

A mixture of history, café, shops, geese by the river and somewhere to sit outside. This is a good place to stop on a walk that welcomes walkers and their dogs.

Where the new houses stand on Beacon Hill a Victorian house stood. When it was being built in 1867 the remains of a beacon were discovered under the ground. Beacons were established in the 1800s to signal messages over long distances to give warning of invasion by an enemy. A little way up Hall Royd Lane a high bank with old stone retaining wall marks the site of Hall Royd Colliery. Before 1802 the Common was open moorland but with the Enclosure in 1802 the land went into ownership of local landowners.

On opposite sides of the then turnpike road were two public houses. The Bonny Bunch of Roses (recently demolished) was build in 1831 by William Tattershall on one side and the Station Inn built in 1853, a year before the railway was opened. A public house stood there previous to that date, called the Junction. Under the railway bridge, note where the original single trackline of 1854, sometime later was widened to double-track so the bridge was widened also. Look for the masons marks on the stones.

Take a moment to look at the village stocks. The sign has further details. The stocks are also right next to The Bells, a pleasant pub, restaurant with outdoor tables for a quiet drink before or after a walk. Across the road the Red Lion is another excellent hostelry with indoor and outdoor space for a drink.

The Station in is the starting point for a number of walking and cycling routes around Silkstone Parish. It's right next to the train station and bus stops. It has outside areas some of which are covered and is a safe place for muddy boots and dog walkers.
