Looking across Liverpool Road towards an unremarkable brick wall. Nevertheless this was once part of a railway bridge that carried The Buckley Railway Company line down to the docks on the River Dee at Connahs Quay. The line opened in 1862 and was essential to the development of the pottery, brick and coal industries in the Buckley area. The white sign was placed on the wall in 2012 by the Buckley Society to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the line opening - Image There is an Ordnance Survey bench mark on the left hand corner of the wall facing the road - Image
