Ron this will be the last time I say this thanks for uploading your photos they are a blast from one past (thanks yet again)when you see photo's like this to me it could be yesterday

I can't remember seeing the bridge myself Where exactly was it. I presume it was near the Ben Johnson pub but which side?

The bridge was about 300 yards to the south of the Ben Johnson and the line would be approx where the entrance roadway to the Keep-Fit place is. The houses you can see through the bridge are still there.

coming from Ashton just under the bridge was a farm then the factory you can see the semidetatched houses and the old cottages just before the Ben on the right handside,

Dougie. Coming from Ashton, was the farm not before the bridge ?

I Live in the first house(semi)that can bee seen.Been here since 1985.The Smiths who had a bakery in Bryn lived there before I bought the house from them.

Does anyone have a pic of the bridge / railway that crossed Warrington rd just past little lane, pemberton loop line, I've found pics of other bridges at tippins on pool stock ect. Thanks.
