Where Cornwall Road sits on a bridge over the abandoned railway line that ran from Seven Sisters station to Palace Gates station until closure in 1964 that too has now been closed to traffic. Wooden planter boxes and cast iron bollards have been fixed in the road at either end of the bridge to stop all vehicular traffic. I assume that the bridge has now been found to be too structurally weak to take anything other than pedestrians and cyclists. My photo Image] from a few years ago gives a glimpse of the bridge's steel span from the west side.
