Track from Staines Moor to Moor Lane
The wide track leads to Moor Lane. Photo is taken from the “Cattle Bridge” or Drover’s Bridge. This consists of three bridges of different dates joined end to end and built between c1840 and 1885. There is a plate girder bridge over the now closed Great Western Railway and Staines Aqueduct, a bridge with two yellow brick arches over the Wraysbury River and a single red brick span over the Southern Railway Staines to Windsor line. This access bridge is the largest surviving monument to the importance of the moor.
