A dual carriageway slip road links Newmarket Road, Bury St. Edmunds to a large roundabout giving access to Westley and Fornham villages and the A14. It passes over this very oblique railway bridge. In the photo a truck is heading westwards over the bridge. In the foreground we see a corner of a newly introduced Saturday car boot sale. This point marks roughly the western limit of the former Westley Airfield, which was used pre-war and during WW2, but largely turned into a housing estate in the 1950s.
