Most online maps only go back to 1850 and any old maps 1700's would be in the West Yorkshire archive or the National archives at Kew London
Near Manygates on the Barnsley road out for Wakefield is an acute Y junction called ( not named on any maps)
' busy corner ' by locals and I think there will be some history of the corner or folk law.
Though I do have a car, I use my OAP free bus pass for obvious reason of fuel cost. though I come from Hudderfield, I catch the Huddersfield to Wakefield bus over the years since I retired, I have been on many bus routes out of Wakefield to various places. Going home to Huddersfield from Wakefield, I used to catch ( The Wakefield to Huddersfield bus had a bad habit of either missing or they were short of drivers due to the Covid 19 virous at the time) 117 bus to Leeds as there was more bus routes from Leeds to Huddersfield or use the train, anyway the bus used to go through Wrenthorpe and I use hear locals say the were getting off at Woodside and others got off further on at Outwood park.
One of my local bus stops near where I live, the locals always ask for the Drill Hall even though the Drill hall had been pulled down long before some of the local bus travelers were born.
