Midge Holme (ruin)

The former site of a tiny dwelling in Roddlesworth Woods, derelict from the turn of the 20th Century.

Nothing to see here other than a pair of interesting “gateposts” on either side of the River Roddlesworth just where the boundary line crosses the river and the old farm well, now capped.
