With Salterford Farm stretch of Whinbush Lane running across the middle of this photograph this picture highlights the existence of a pedestrian access point onto a now defunct branch line. This previously served the former Calverton Colliery that closed in 1999. The track bed can be joined here and followed for a mile or so behind the photographer's left shoulder, although for the most part it is heavy on one's footwear and one's ankles too due to the rocky nature of the surface. It is also overgrown in parts. Sansom Wood is a 15 minute walk away
