The road to Kynaston - Edgerley, Shropshire
Just to the west of here, behind the photographer, lies the site of Kinnerley Junction where the Shropshire & Montgomeryshire Railway, the 'Potts', diverged, one branch turning southwards to Criggion and the other westwards to Llanymynech. In existence from 1866 to 1962, the line had a very chequered history and there are a number of books published on the story of it. The trackbed these days is private land, with no public access. The lower sign reads 'TRAINING AREAS 1 TO 6' and the signpost arms 'Kinnerley Knockin' 'Pentre Wilcott' and 'Kynaston'. Time taken 3.13 pm BST (British Summer Time).
