Remains of old bridge, Durranhill
Image: © Rose and Trev Clough Taken: 1 Mar 2008
Taken from the "new" Durranhill Bridge (parapet on right), opened in 1969, which carries Eastern Way over Durranhill Road and a couple of railway lines. The old bridge stayed put, with pedestrian access, for many years. We do not know when it was demolished, but it still appears intact on Google satellite and OS Get-a-Map at time of posting. It is puzzling why this little bit, over the Carlisle to Newcastle railway, was left. For another view, see Image . The chimney on the left is at Botcherby Dairy (demolished 2010), with Botcherby housing estate behind that.
