Birchenwood Tunnel
Birchenwood Tunnel was part of the Potteries Loop Line opened in 1875 between Etruria and Kidsgrove via Hanley and Tunstall. It was unusual in being built to accommodate three tracks. The line closed to passengers in 1964 although this section continued to be used for freight until 1976. It is now a cycleway and footpath.

Pond near Birchenwood Tunnel
Adjacent to the former Potteries Loop railway, now a footpath and cycleway, is this orange pond. The colour of the water is caused by ironstone leeching and is common in the Kidsgrove area.

Stream beside the Potteries Loop Line
This stream (not named on the map) follows the old route of the Potteries Loop Line - now the Scotia Valley Greenway, a path and cycleway - for some distance east of Kidsgrove. Its colour looks alarming, but this is caused by ironstone leeching, a phenomenon that also affects the Trent & Mersey Canal in the area.
