Summary edit
| Description |
English: Railway Bridge, Belvoir Road, near Denton. This handsome three-arch bridge carried Belvoir Road over the Denton Branch. The branch line, from Belvoir Junction on the Nottingham-Grantham line (SK832384) was built in the 1880s by the Great Northern Railway. It terminated north of the Denton-Harston road (SK847321), from where quarry-owned railways (originally narrow gauge, but standard gauge from 1948 until closure of the Denton Branch in 1974) led to ironstone pits at Denton, Harston and Cedar Hill. In 1941 the railway to quarries at Harlaxton was built, from Casthorpe Junction (SK861343) to Gorse Lane (SK878308), via a reversing point at Swine Hill (SK886320). This photograph is taken looking towards Casthorpe Junction. See other photos nearby for more on the ironstone railways in this area - Kate Jewell's for this square shows the Harlaxton line south-east of Casthorpe Junction. |
