Halton [NWR]

Looking towards Lancaster along the old line from Wennington in February 2021. This point, just to the south of Halton, is where the line passed under the M6 motorway between 1960 and the 1966 closure. In the foreground is a concrete occupation bridge, built to replace an older structure that lay directly in the path of the motorway. Beyond the M6 is a further bridge, dating from 2016, which carries the Bay Gateway link road over the cycleway and the River Lune.
