Name and dates

Fonah Level Crossing (1838-1967)

Opened on the Arbroath and Forfar Railway.

Description

This was a private level crossing towards the east end of Rescobie Loch, between Auldbar Road (to the east) and Clocksbriggs (to the west) stations. There was a hut directly to the east. The crossing may not have been original and probably provided access to the south side of the loch.

When the railway was built here a small part of southern side of Rescobie Loch was crossed by an embankment. This has been partly infilled.
