Industrial remains off Hall Lane, Ettiley Heath
Only a number of concrete blocks of various heights remain of a former building here. Old maps show sidings at this point and a salt works the other side of the canal bridge (a site now occupied by the United Phosphorous building in the background), so it may have been a building storing salt waiting to be loaded onto trains.

Hall Lane railway bridge, Elworth
Actually a pair of bridges, the nearer modern steel bridge carrying the fast lines between Manchester and Crewe, and the older brick arch beyond (with a height limit of 3.7m) carrying the freight lines between Middlewich and Crewe. The presence of a sharp bend just beyond necessitates traffic light control.
