Fallgate

Evening view south-eastwards along the Amber Valley, from the Ashover to Fallgate road, on 9th September 2023. The low embankment carried the narrow gauge Ashover Light Railway but the last freight train ran in 1950 with a load of stone from Butts Quarry at Ashover. However, a quarry at Fallgate continued to use an internal railway until 1963 (See image 61936).
