near to Birmingham International Airport, Solihull, Great Britain

The Railway Bridge at the (one time) Marston Hall Drive?

This bridge carries a footpath over the West Coast Main Line near Birmingham International Station. Judging from the "1940s OS New Popular Edition" map, this bridge carried the drive from Marston Green to Marston Hall. Marston Hall is now under concrete at Birmingham Airport and most of the drive is underneath the Elmdon Trading Estate.

Look closely and you will see a brass stud. The writing on the stud says "Survey Marker".
