Old railway at Huntly, Banbridge

The GNR(I) line from Banbridge to Scarva closed in 1955. Shortly after leaving Banbridge the line crossed the River Bann by a bridge at Huntly before continuing past Cowdy’s mill to the level crossing at Millmount. This is the site of the bridge, now part of a riverside walk. The line of trees in the foreground shows the course of the railway clearly but it is not clear on the other side. Indeed, anyone not familiar with the area would find it hard to believe that a railway ever existed. Continue to Image
