Re: Air raid shelter

In my opinion, Riley's Hill is near the junction of Nuttall St & Bath St, at the back of what was Highams' Woodnook Mill. Riley St is at the top of the hill. It is likely so called because the Riley family owned land there, at the very edge of Royd's land which covered most of Woodnook. Near to this site - I don;'t know exactly where the shelter was -is a triangular piece of land between Bath St, Nuttall St & Marsden St which was called 'The Flat Iron'
