Two into one
This section of Welshmill Lane divides into two for a short run, just before it returns to a single carriageway. However, just after that it becomes a single track as it passes under the railway bridge - all without the aid of traffic lights! See Image] for another view.

Welshmill Lane railway bridge
Part of the G.W.R. (Radstock branch) railway line into Frome. There is a benchmark on the stone block walling to the right - see Image Interestingly, the single road section underneath it is not light-controlled. Also see Image] for a closer look at the signs above.

A change of emphasis
The sign above the Welshmill Lane railway bridge overlays an earlier one - and a triangular one at that. The Highway Code lists triangular signs as being warnings (mostly) whereas the circular give orders. See Image] for another view.

Green for a change
It's not unknown for old benchmarks to be resurveyed and a touch of yellow paint applied to aid the location, but not green. Perhaps it was made by someone other than a surveyor. See http://www.bench-marks.org.uk/bm57383 for the entry in the Benchmark Database and Image] for a wider view.
