'''To Bristol''': [[The Ha'Penny Bridge]]<br />
<br>'''To Yate or London''': [[Farm Bridge]]<br />
== History ==<br />
I have no idea if this track is part of '''Frog Lane'''. The maps show the lane starting at Frog Lane Farm, and the section of old trackbed beyond the farm seems to share the name at least part way, but this section of track is unnamed on every map I have.<br />
<br />
There are two railways here. The main Bristol & South Wales to London (via Parkway) mainline, and an old colliery line that served [[Frog Lane Colliery|Frog Lane Pit]]. The colliery railway went under the mainline at 90° and joined the Midland mainline at [[Westerleigh Sidings]]. There was also a spur from the colliery railway to [[Coalpit Heath]] station.<br />

Image:Frog Lane2.jpg|The bridge under the mainline.<br />
Image:Frog Lane1.jpg|The bridge viewed from the other side.<br />
Image:Frog Lane4.jpg|Looking through the bridge, the route the colliery railway took is very easy to make out.<br />
Image:Frog Lane5.jpg|Further along the trackbed. According to the map, this is where the spur that went to Coalpit Heath station left the line.<br />
Image:Frog Lane6.jpg|The gate is where the trackbed joins Frog Lane proper. On the left is Frog Lane Farm, on the right is a track that heads off in the direction of Yate. The railway went straight ahead to Frog Lane Pit.<br />
Image:Frog Lane7.jpg|We headed back, leaving further exploring of Frog Lane 'till another day. A great place for a quick game of kick-a-long though..<br />
