These modern houses on the roads called Locksgate and The Trundle are built over the trackbed of the former Great Northern & Great Eastern Joint Railway branch from Somersham to Warboys and Ramsey East, which opened in 1889 and closed completely in 1956. The view is from the bridge carrying Parkhall Road over the line. For a view in the other direction see Image
