Bridge abutment
The abutment on the north side of Ford Road for the bridge which once carried the Glasgow Central Railway. Kirklee Station was just to the north of it. The platforms extended over the bridge and the infilling by bricks clearly shows where the trackbed was in relation to the platforms.
The line opened in 1894 and closed to all traffic in 1964.
