A branch line off the main line in Widemarsh, Hereford. Formerly the start of the line to Hay-on-Wye and Brecon, after closure in the early 1960s it became a siding serving the Bulmer Cider works. But this has been disused for some years. The sign of a black cross on a white background top centre of the photo warns any train driver they are approaching the level crossing on Burcott Road
