Pow Beck flowing though a gap in the embankment of the former Cockermouth, Keswick and Penrith Railway. The bridge which once sat on the abutments carrying trains across the stream is missing, as is a footbridge which carried a right of way across the stream. The path has been rerouted via a bridge further downstream (from which I am took this photo) and provides a more direct route across the grass field.
