Cutting and bridge
A wonderful construction in blue engineering brick carries a minor road over the former Llanberis branch railway line, now converted into a superb leisure path. Tensile netting prevents falling rocks from reaching the track, a hazard that is particular to the northeast side of the cutting due to the intersection of the regional cleavage with the excavation. The sound-effects of the steam trains pounding up this inclined route must have been wonderful.
