This is the view down Dad's Lane from the railway bridge, taken on a gloomy midwinter's day. Highbury Park is at the top of the bank and because there are no steps at this point people risk a fall ascending or descending the slippery bank. The MR on the metal marker post is presumably a boundary marker signifying 'Midland Railway', so it presumably dates to before amalgamation in 1922.
