Hemel Hempstead: The Nicky Line
Image: © Nigel Cox Taken: 14 Oct 2007
The trackbed of the dismantled Hemel Hempstead to Harpenden railway (The Nicky Line) viewed looking across the bridge over Three Cherry Trees Lane. The route is now a footpath and is also one of the few opened sections of the proposed National Cycle Network Route 57 that will eventually run from Cricklade in Wiltshire to Welwyn Garden City in Hertfordshire. Update July 2011 A correspondent writes that the old original bridge abutments are collapsing so the lightweight crossing seen here has been removed. Please see Image and Image
