Looking south, in the direction of Shrewsbury, from Balderton Crossing. The width of the track bed indicates that this was once a double track main line, as can be seen in Image; there was also a station on the other side of the lane. On the right of the photo there used to be a signal box. The stone bridge in the distance carries Balderton Drive that once was an approach road to Eaton Hall for the Duke of Westminster. The A55 has now severed that link.
