The Thornes Lane Wharf and Wakefield Wharf bank of the River Calder. In the past, there were corn mills, kilns and malthouses situated along Thornes Lane. Nowadays, Thornes Lanes is still an industrial area with a somewhat neglected appearance. In the distance, the cathedral and other city centre buildings.
