Luton: Former Great Northern Railway Luton & Dunstable branch
This is the point at which the former Great Northern Railway's Luton & Dunstable branch crossed the former Gallows Road, now the A505 Kimpton Road. Having been opened around 1860 the line was finally closed to passenger traffic in 1965. Since this photograph was taken the old railway embankment has been demolished and a ramp built for the Luton Dunstable Busway's spur to Luton Airport. This is on the northern side of the road. The old railway bridge abutment on the southern side was still extant in 2011, and the route of the railway on the south side of the road does not appear to figure in current plans for the busway. See Image
The road is shown as Gallows Road on large scale Ordnance Survey mapping up to 1901, but by 1924 the mapping was showing that it had acquired its current moniker.
