On reaching Bridge #119 on the former railway line from Godley Junction to Apethorn, the Trans Pennine Trail and National Cycle Network Route #62 needs to leave the trackbed as the next section joined the main line from Hyde to Woodley a few hundred yards beyond this point and so is abandoned Access is prevented by heaving railings across the front of the bridge. The trail route goes down Apethorn Lane towards the Peak Forest Canal.
