Clifton Bridge

The trackbed and tunnel under Brunel's suspension bridge on Bristol's Portbury branch. You will note the vegetation getting a grip. I spoke to a passing PW ganger  who informed me that, as the line runs through a SSSI zone, they are not allowed to use weedkiller. So long as the growing grass/weeds do not affect the passage of freight trains it will not be touched.
