The green sign in front of the electricity substation identifies this as the Scotia Valley Greenway although the name does not seem to be generally well promoted. It is in fact part of the former Potteries Loop railway that ran from Etruria to Kidsgrove; passenger services were withdrawn in 1964 although some sections continued to see freight trains until the mid-1970s.
