Walled-up railway bridge, Thongsbridge
This came as a surprise, as I had forgotten that Holmfirth had a railway, a branch of the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway in 1893, but of the Huddersfield and Sheffield Junction Railway in 1850. Presumably the route along the valley was too difficult because of mills, so that the line had to climb steeply out of Holmfirth up to this bridge under Heys Road. Thongsbridge station was on the other side, and the OS map still shows a wooded area with two lines that might be the edges of the platforms. However, there is a building site there now - you can see the roofs of the new houses. The line continued over a high viaduct and along the eastern hillside on the Holme valley.
