4 shots from the former S&D bridge between Shillingstone and Blandford that is now little more than parapets lost in a big infilled cutting. This will certainly be a challenge -but far from an insurmountable one - for either Shillingstone or the New S&D. I think this location is Cliff Cutting - but I stand to be corrected! I should have made notes on the day, but I always find that a little trainspotterish!
Well the one at Chilcompton is better than this as only one side needs to be excavated, but it is rather deep.
ReplyDeleteBluebell's double trackbe imberhorne cutting is full of rubbish but they're digging out the whole profile.
ReplyDelete"Rabbit cutting" cliff bridge here at shillingstone was a 3 arch bridge, the middle track arch being single, at the summit of a steep 1 in 75 down to the 3rd stour crossing's missing 75' girder and tampered with brick flood arches.
