Part of the first Trans-Pennine railway immediately north of Moston station. The next bridge carries the M60 motorway. Between 1955-1986 the view ahead would have been dominated by Chadderton B electricity generating station and its attendant cooling towers (see http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/810586 for a view from further south).
