Path across course of old railway
Image: © Robin Webster Taken: 23 Feb 2013
Between Vernon Drive and Wemborough Road, crossing the route of the LNWR Stanmore branch, which here was in a cutting. The road and housing layout here, which post-dated the railway, appears to have been set out to bridge the railway, but the plan was evidently dropped. The drive to the synagogue on the left has completely filled in the railway cutting, the path partly so. The railway was closed in 1964, this part north of Belmont being freight only since 1952.
