Upper Tankersley South Yorkshire Map

About Upper Tankersley

Upper Tankersley unfolds on the gentle slopes of South Yorkshire, a quiet collection of dwellings where the air often carries the scent of damp earth and distant woodsmoke. It lies 4.6 km south-south-west of Worsbrough (from Worsbrough: bearing 199°T, OS grid SK 339 995), and is situated south-west of Tankersley village. The landscape here is a thoughtful mosaic of fields and copses, often softened by the diffused light filtering through the Yorkshire sky, lending a particular, pearly sheen to the stone walls that trace the contours of the land. The houses of Upper Tankersley, many of them built from the local gritstone, seem to settle into the earth as if they have grown there organically, their slate roofs glinting modestly after a rain. A small stream, barely more than a murmur in drier seasons, threads its way through the lower reaches, a silver ribbon reflecting the changing hues of the surrounding trees. Life in Upper Tankersley has long been tied to the land, a quiet continuation of generations who have tended these fields and found sustenance in the rich soil.
