The digital zoom pushed to its limit with the corresponding drop in quality. Worth including though I think. The junction with the mainline. The opposite view is available on the Yate Station page. -
The abutments for the flyover line are still visible in amongst the undergrowth. -
The second abutment shows that the rest of this line is buried under the warehouse mentioned in the caption above. -
A footpath leads from Beech Hill to Westerleigh Common and would have at one time gone under the flyover line.
