Currock railway footbridge (1) - the inside

Image: © Rose and Trev Clough Taken: 21 Feb 2009

This rusty metal bridge was built in 1929. It crosses the Cumbrian Coast railway line, between Currock and Denton Holme. It is seriously scary because you can't see if anybody else is on it as you approach, from either end. The sides are completely enclosed, and too high to see over the top. For other views of the bridge, see Geograph photos http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1197294 and http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1197293 . Information update : This bridge was demolished in September 2016, after a much more user-friendly replacement was installed - see Image .
