It's hard to believe, but this is all that remains of the bridge that carried the Belfast & County Down Railway line from Crossgar to Downpatrick across Cargagh Road. Like so many other railways, it was closed in 1950 by the Ulster Transport Authority. Dr Beeching was a rank amateur compared to them!
