Former railway flyover
Known as Five Arches, only four are visible here. The fifth, to the right of this image, is partially blocked. The flyover carried the Somerset and Dorset Joint Railway over the Great Western Railway. Both routes are now cycle tracks.

One of the Five Arches
Looking beneath an arch of the Five Arches Viaduct which carried the former Somerset & Dorset Joint Railway across the former Great Western Railway’s North Somerset branch line, which is now a cyclepath, and from which this is taken. The viaduct has been recreated by Egham & Staines Model Railway Society http://www.egham-staines-mrs.co.uk/layout_5arch.htm .
