New Mills Central
Looking east from New Mills Central station can be seen two tunnels. The one on the right is still in use and leads to New Mills South Junction. The one on the left (visible again for the first time in a number of years thanks to some vegetation clearance) was on the branch to Hayfield. In front of these two tunnels was New Mills Junction however the Hayfield branch closed in January 1970. A turnback siding remained for a few years longer although that was eventually lifted as well. That ended the junction at this location.
