Ive just been looking at some notices served by the Corporation on the owners of land where new streets were built. These were sent to the Royds family, owners of streets in Woodnook. Dated 1887,they stipulated that the streets had to be sewered,levelled,paved, flagged, kerbed and chanelled within one month. The flags had to be not less than 3 inches thick - these would be from Green Haworth.
