The A436 road runs along the top of a ridge affording excellent views in both directions. This view is looking south west from the road with the line of trees marking the route of the dismantled Banbury to Cheltenham Direct Railway. The line opened in stages from 1855 to 1881 and finally closed to passengers in 1962.
