This rusty metal bridge was built in 1929. It crosses the Cumbrian Coast railway line, between Currock and Denton Holme. It is seriously scary because you can't see if anybody else is on it as you approach, from either end. The sides are completely enclosed, and too high to see over the top. For other views of the bridge, see Geograph photos http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1197294 and http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1197293 . Information update : This bridge was demolished in September 2016, after a much more user-friendly replacement was installed - see Image .

One of the buildings that make up Currock Community Centre http://www.currockcommunitycentre.org.uk/ , located in Lediard Avenue. Currock House was built around 1832, and became a Community Centre in 1934. It is a Grade II listed building http://www.imagesofengland.org.uk/details/default.aspx?id=386779 .

This was a wagon repair depot which was closed around 2007, the buildings have since deteriorated. See photo taken from the opposite direction in 2009 Image . In the distance, the grey building with a sign on it is DW Fitness on Currock Road. Information update 31.12.16. The shed has now been demolished.

A generally disliked crossing over the Cumbrian Coast railway line. Replaced by a new bridge with much better access and visibility for users - see Image . Zoomed-in shot. Houses at Lund Crescent in the distance. The bridge was demolished in September 2016.

Another section has been loaded onto a trailer (right). It was taken down almost immediately after the long awaited cycle-friendly replacement was opened Image . This is how the bridge looked in situ Image .

Steep steps leading down to Maryport Cottages. This is a quick pedestrian route from Currock to the River Caldew and Denton Holme. But negotiating it is impossible in a wheelchair, and very difficult with a bike or buggy. For other views of the bridge, see Geograph photos http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1197295 and http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1197293 . Information update : This bridge was demolished in September 2016, after a much more user-friendly replacement was installed - see Image .

The bridge crosses the Cumbrian Coast railway line, connecting the suburbs of Denton Holme and Currock. It is approached by a long but gentle slope, accessible by pedestrians, cyclists and wheelchair users. On the left, the old metal footbridge is just visible. This is a zoomed-in view from Holme Head, towards houses on Lund Crescent.
