The photo is taken looking southwards from the new railway flyover south of Brough. The bridge has enabled the development of many acres of land for new housing. Most of this land has been raised by about 3m with huge quantities of pulverised chalk to prevent the houses flooding should the River Humber breach its banks nearby.
