Middleton Top

Middleton Top engine house, as seen from the summit of the Middleton incline. The steam winding engine is still (occasionally) operational and open days are held. The trackbed cycle path curves round behind this building, passes a visitor centre and then heads for nearby Hopton Incline and Parsley Hay beyond. There is no trace of the small engine shed that housed the C&HPR locomotives until the 1967 closure.
