Big wall; little men
Big wall; little men
The heavily buttressed south abutment of the former bridge across the River Clyde of the Lanark to Muirkirk railway line dwarfs two ramblers. The railway closed to passengers in 1964 and at this location to goods traffic, coal from Douglas Colliery near Ponfeigh, in 1968 and the bridge was demolished except for the two abutments either side of the river soon afterwards.
