This former subway gave access 'under' the railway lines of the former L.M.S. Railway heading into and from Blackpool Central Station. The station closed in 1964 but the site of the former lines ... and there were 14 at one stage bringing thousands of visitors to Blackpool ... is now a road and car parking area. The subway is shown on the 1932 OS Map but will date from the early 1900s. The grey bricks are atypical of the former railway architecture and is reflected in many of the former railway bridges which still in the area. Not sure when it was finally closed off. Image
