Bridge carrying A5013 over disused railway
Bridge carrying A5013 road over the former GNR Stafford - Uttoxeter line, west of Stafford Common Station, closed to Passengers on 4th December 1939. The line survived for freight and for special servicemens trains until final closure to all regular traffic on 5th March 1951, the last train over the line being an SLS special in March 1957. The line east of Stafford Common Station was lifted in 1959 but the remainder was retained for use by engineers in connection with electrification work on the West Coast Main Line. This stub was finally taken out of use in December 1975.

Sign for National Cycle Route 5 on Isabel Trail, Stafford

The trail is named for Isabel, a narrow gauge locomotive built by Bagnalls of Stafford in 1897 and displayed on a plinth outside Stafford railway station from 1963.

Stafford Town Cemetery, Eccleshall Road
The C19th cemetery includes this group of War graves from WW2. They are mainly Allied airmen, including some Poles and Canadians, but the graves nearest the camera, to judge by the names appear, to be German. United in death.
There are also a number of graves from WW1, presumably of those who died of wounds after being re-patriated to 'Blighty', but these are scattered across the cemetery rather than grouped together

Stafford Cemetery, Eccleshall Road
A miscellany of graves amongst mature trees make this a pleasant place for Staffordians to walk and remember their loved ones. The rather grand memorial is to the Corcoran family, by way of a contrast the almost insignificant white stone to its right is one of the numerous WW1 War Graves marked with the standard Commonwealth War Graves Commission markers that are scattered throughout the cemetery.
