Culvert over Blackpool Brook
Culvert over Blackpool Brook
One of few remaining physical reminders of the Forest of Dean Central's doomed attempt to construct a railway. This attractive stone bridge now carries the access track to Mallards Pike lake, but was originally constructed to carry the Forest of Dean Central Railway's line to New Fancy Colliery, a role it performed for only five years. The full history of the company and its line is at LinkExternal link
