Moss Shaw Bridge
A view of the bridge which takes Chatsworth Road over the route of the former Liverpool and Bury (later Lancashire and Yorkshire) Railway between Bradley Fold and Black Lane, near to Moss Shaw Farm.
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 (https://bit.ly/3brUqCJ - Heywood Advertiser, archived November 2012).
