Cycleway at Bradley Fold
The Bolton to Bury rail line was here until it closed in 1970. Bradley Fold station was on the right of the picture. Sadly, the cycleway is unkempt and littered and what could be a pleasant route for walkers and cyclists is now pretty grim.

The Queens Hotel, Bradley Fold
Standing alongside where the railway used to run, the pub is shown on a 1910 map, and so has served Bradley Fold for at least a century.

Dismantled Railway
Looking towards the bridge at Radcliffe Moor Road, along the route of the former Liverpool and Bury (later Lancashire and Yorkshire) Railway, close to where Bradley Fold Station once stood.
The Liverpool and Bury Railway was formed in 1845. In 1847, it was incorporated into the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway and from 1922, until nationalisation, was part of the London, Midland and Scottish Railway.
The line between Bolton and Bury was closed in 1970 and part of the route, as here, is now a footpath although it has been built over in other places (http://menmedia.co.uk/heywoodadvertiser/news/s/390183_rail_decision_spells_gloom_for_lines_future - Heywood Advertiser).
