Pond, Mill Lane, Kirkby The 1891 map shows Kirkby Mill just north of Mill Lane, it was demolished in the 1950's. It appears to have created a mill pond of 1.337 acres and the outlet discharged southwards via Mill Brook, passing the church of St. Chad, eventually to drain into the River Alt. It is now a popular fishing spot for local residents.

Millbrook Park Millennium Green Millbrook Park Millennium Green is an expansive area of public open space providing an impressive backdrop to the ancient St. Chads Church. Although adjacent to the centre of Kirkby, (Mill) Brook runs through the middle of the site and trees border the edge making it a peaceful retreat.
