Lynton and Barnstaple Railway ? Disused Trackbed
Disused trackbed, running in towards the overgrown cutting (the black hole under the golden leaves). This was one of many cuttings hewn out of the rock to allow the line to make its way across and through the challenging Exmoor countryside.
The Lynton & Barnstaple Railway was a 19 mile long narrow gauge railway, which ran across the stunning Exmoor landscape, from 1898, until its closure in 1935. In 2004, after many years of hard work and negotiation, a small section was re-opened. It is hoped that this section will soon be completely cleared, and become a working part of the railway once more. One of the world’s most famous little railways, you can read more of the exciting plans for the coming years at www.lynton-rail.co.uk

Lynton and Barnstaple Railway ? Platelayers Hut
Remains of what was likely to have been a Platelayer’s Hut. This will be carefully excavated to discover what lies under all this rubble and spoil. There is the possibility this could be rebuilt over time.
