NOTTON: Wakefield Parish #7 of 30

To one of Wakefield's smaller villages we go today and it's one with a modest 982 population that seems content to sit as it is between the South Yorkshire town of Royston to the South and the much larger Wakefield city to the North, just chilling without wishing to change what it is or what it stands for any time soon, or at least that is the impression I got from the locals. They're happy with the village just the way it is. Well, why not? This is a lovely corner of Wakefield, one of the most Southerly within both West Yorkshire and the city boundaries, separated only from South Yorkshire by around a mile of open countryside. The village is surrounded pretty much on all sides by agricultural lands, some of which is used by local farms, and the rest used as either a Nature Reserve or as apart of the many woodland trails and walking routes you'll find here. The centre of the village boasts a huge village green with an impressive village hall and a noticeboard that's full of information about the parish, including a very good map which I take full advantage of. Perhaps the most interesting thing about this parish is just how many things historically depended on the land and the surrounding area this covers. Take for instance the many mills and the railways and the canal, all of which through time were important here. The railway is now less important and some of it is not even a railway anymore. In fact, where it used to be is now a part of that good channel favourite, the Trans Pennine Trail. The canal as we saw in Walton is disused and dried up but it doesn't make it any less interesting to look at once again. This is a village whose name means "Wether Sheep Farm", but we know it today as NOTTON. **** My name is Andy. I am armed with a car, a GoPro and an unhealthy amount of time on my hands.
