Trans Pennine Trail at Apethorn Lane
On reaching Bridge #119 on the former railway line from Godley Junction to Apethorn, the Trans Pennine Trail and National Cycle Network Route #62 needs to leave the trackbed as the next section joined the main line from Hyde to Woodley a few hundred yards beyond this point and so is abandoned Access is prevented by heaving railings across the front of the bridge. The trail route goes down Apethorn Lane towards the Peak Forest Canal.

Apethorn Lane Bridge
The Apethorn Lane Bridge (now numbered 119) over the former Godley to Apethorn railway line. This section is part of the TransPennine Trail. Beyond the bridge, the line shortly joined the still open Hyde to Woodley railway. Access beyond the bridge is therefore barred and users of the trail are diverted towards the Peak Forest Canal. In the foreground is a Sustran's Milepost Image

Bridge #119
Bridge #119 takes Apethorn Lane over the former railway line from Godley Junction to Apethorn. The "Cheshire Lines Committee (CLC)" route opened in 1866. Following the electrification of the Woodhead line in 1954 and until 1981 when the through route to Sheffield closed, the main traffic on the line consisted of trains from the Yorkshire coalfield to the Fiddlers Ferry power station. Most of former trackbed is now utilised by the Trans Pennine Trail and National Cycle Network Route #62 but this section joined the main line from Hyde to Woodley a few hundred yards beyond this point and so is abandoned with access prevented by heavy railings across the front of the bridge. The trail turns right towards the Peak Forest Canal. In the foreground is a Sustran's Milepost.
