Chesterfield Canal and Trans Pennine Trail
Picture Image] looks towards the bridge I'm stood on here. From here, you can clearly see the cut of the disused Chesterfield Canal and, to the right, the path of the old GC (MS&LR) railway between Killamarsh and Renishaw. Planning permission has recently been posted (mid 2006) to try to rewater the canal almost up to this point from Renishaw. Up ahead, the canal turns to the south-west, and when built, didn't go under the bridge, but continued on a north-east line following the contour of the hill. It was diverted when the railway was built. Ironic really that the canal may yet end up back in full working condition whereas the railway will now be nothing more than a cycle and leisure trail.

Chesterfield Canal, Renishaw
According to old maps, this is where the original route and the current route parted company. In front, you can just make out one of the bridges built to get what's now a bridle path across the combined width of the railway and new cut.
The original path goes off to the north-west, hugging the 55m contour line and rejoins the original path in Image I assume the 'new cut' was done by the railway builders, looking at the bridges and cutting. I don't know the date, but it's certainly prior to 1907 because the 1907 OS map shows the new cut.

Renishaw: former railway bridge on Spinkhill Lane
A 40mph limit seems generous as the bridge is narrow by modern standards and on an almost blind dogleg. The bridge once carried the Great Central main line from Sheffield Victoria (left) to London Marylebone via Nottingham Victoria and Leicester Central. It now carries a cycle track (shown in Image]).

Renishaw: once a railway bridge
Now a cycle track and part of the Trans-Pennine Trail, this was once the trackbed of the Great Central Railway main line from London Marylebone to Sheffield Victoria (ahead) and Manchester. Iron trellis-pattern bridge parapets were a Great Central speciality - Image] shows one further south, near Nottingham. Image] shows this bridge from road level.
