The old Railway

A short write up on the railway can be found here.

This is a photo of what is left of the path of the old railway line looking from the Rowton bridge towards Crudgington. The chimney of the Creamery can just be seen to the left of the trees. Below is where Rowton Halt once was. Taken 31 May 2008.
