Disused Railway, Birstall

This was a branch line from Dewsbury up the valley to Birstall. In the foreground is the overgrown track bed, and then there is a length that has been landscaped. With luck this could be a cycle route which would extend the existing route on the disused railway past Wilton Park, Batley.
