Road off Hafren Close
Image: © Paul Collins Taken: 11 Nov 2016
This short section of road is situated in the middle of a housing estate dating mostly (I guess) from the 1960s. It preserves the line of the lane that served as access to the long-gone Frogmill Farm. The road ends about 65 metres in front of the photographer at a metal fence (just visible). At that point the Rubery and Frankley Railway crossed the lane and can be walked (line of lamp posts just visible in front of distant conifers). The open land in the right of the view once contained a runaway siding for the railway. http://www.miac.org.uk/ruberyfrankley.html
