Standish

Two bridges on a former 4-track section of the WCML over the B5239 at Standish, with the bricked up arch between once giving access to Standish station (closed 1949). What might appear at first glance to be graffiti plugging a new rock band has been put there to identify the bridge carrying rail traffic for reporting purposes in the event of a bridge strike. The other, out of use, bridge has some severe indentations, suggesting that the road vehicles involved may have needed major surgery! See image 22604
