Under the arches of the Engine Lonning Bridge
Image: © Oliver Dixon Taken: 28 Aug 2008
The path under the arch of the old railway bridge which used to carry the "Waverley" railway line (Carlisle to Edinburgh) carries both Hadrians Wall National Trail http://www.nationaltrail.co.uk/hadrianswall/ and Hadrian's Cycleway http://www.cycle-routes.org/hadrianscycleway/ . For cyclists, it is a fairly unsatisfactory route (described as "interim") as it requires cyclists to negotiate a flight of steps with a "wheeling ramp" immediately beyond the bridge - not easy with a fully-laden bike.
