Kirkby Lonsdale

Half a bridge is better than none. Just east of the old Kirkby Lonsdale station, on the Low Gill to Clapham line, is the village of Cowan Bridge where this bridge carried the railway over the lane to Leck. With the embankment having been removed many years ago it is surprising that the low bridge hasn't gone too but it still straddles the road, 47 years after it carried its last train.
