Installed as part of the Elsecar Heritage Railway's project to extend their line to Cortonwood. As can be seen, the line itself has progressed no further at this stage.

Well at least currently [2019]. The track has been relaid to Cortonwood, but issues around the level crossing at Tingle Bridge have yet to be resolved.

The site of Tingle Bridge Lock
Looking west from Tingle Bridge. The lock, and the pound below, have been cascaded. The canal was built to carry coal from local collieries. It had opened by 1798, at least 30 years before any railway competition. It closed to traffic [due to mining subsidence] in 1928. It was officially closed in 1961.
