Bridge on the Denton Branch

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Bridge on the Denton Branch This bridge, built from ironstone and brick, carried Sewstern Lane over the Great Northern Railway Denton Branch. The branch line, from Belvoir Junction on the Nottingham-Grantham line (SK832384) was built in the 1880s by the Great Northern Railway to serve the ironstone quarrying industry. 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 Denton and Casthorpe Junction; the fan of sidings at the terminus, known as Harston Sidings, was a few hundred yards away to the south west. See other photos nearby for more on the ironstone railways in this area.
