Name and dates

Devonshaw Siding

Opened on the Devon Valley Railway.

Description

This siding was on the north side of the Devon Valley Railway and approached from the west. There was a stone built loading bank. From this loading bank a tramway ran first west, then (on a tight curve) pass south under the railway before climbing to Devonshaw Quarry at Gibson's Craig, just over half a mile to the south.

The loading bank remains, as do the parapets of the removed girder bridge the tramway passed under.
