The remains of the railway embankment which once carried the railway to Mitcheldean Road station. I'm standing near the trackbed of the old Mitcheldean Road and Forest of Dean Junction Railway, whose title takes slightly longer to say than the lifespan of the railway itself. More of that in later photos. Mitcheldean Road station was where the houses are at centre right of shot.
