Former Great Northern Railway in Lower Soothill
The canyon like retaining walls and bridge abutments still remain where the Batley to Beeston via Woodkirk Railway crossed Lady Ann Road north of West Street. The route was decommissioned completely in 1953 and few examples of the infrastructure now remain. This is one of them.
