The red-brick parapet to the right was once part of a bridge which carried Bagnall Road over the railway which linked Cinderhill Colliery to the Great Northern Railway Nottingham Victoria to Derby Friargate line. A second bridge, beyond the Belisha beacon, originally spanned the Midland Railway branch to the colliery. It now crosses the Phoenix Park branch of the NET tramway.
