The line of trees behind the farm building is the track of the Severn and Wye climbing from Lydbrook Junction towards the Forest of Dean. The Lydbook valley is to the right of the picture. Under the trees are piles of large dressed stones - the remains of Lydbrook Viaduct. The farm was sold shortly after this picture was taken in 2004 and there is now a large house on the site. The land is still accessible from a public path from the valley road. (Immediately behind the camera lies one of the few visible sections of Offa's Dyke).
