The railway stops here
Disused railway bridge over Lower Kelly, Calstock. There used to be a branch line from what is now the Tamar Valley Railway down to the shore of the Tamar west of Calstock, taking the gentlest slope down the valley side - still pretty steep for a train. It crosses the road but I can't believe it ever went much further since the river is only a few metres away to the left. There is a massive lime kiln built between the road and railway just beyond this bridge.
