This is the A454 Bridgnorth Road at the junction with the B4161 Finchfield Hill (leading off to the right). The bridge used to carry the Wolverhampton to Stourbridge (via Wombourne) railway line which only carried passengers from 1925 to 1932. Freight was stopped in 1965 and the line is now used for an excellent leisure route linking Valley Park with the South Staffordshire Railway Walk
