Dearne Way footpath / track. Between Darton Station and Yorkshire Sculpture Park.

Dearne Way footpath / track.

Bridge closed for some reason. The diversion is ok although I can imagine when the road is busy not pleasant.

TPT diversion route due to electricity works. Actually, an excellent diversion. There are one or two places where water has damaged the surface but it's all easy to ride on.

Absolutely terrible surface here. This should be given a sealed surface.

Tunnel has a great surface, is well lit, and is really echoey so you can have a bit of fun here :)

Nice sealed surface on this stretch.

Very poor condition track barely cyclable. Good for mountain bikes, nothing else.

Cycle parking in Barnsley Market.

Cycle parking on Market Hill, and a bike on the roof of the entrance to the Old №7 pub.

Clear signage on the Trans Pennine Trail outside Penistone station.

The main cycle parking at Barnsley station, including the former 'Bike & Go' stands and shelter. I'm sure there will be a reason for the spelling of 'Barnsleigh Interchange'.

Some cycle parking on platform 2 at Barnsley station. There is more cycle parking on platform 1 (see #112592).
