The Battlefield Line, Market Bosworth
Compare with this similar view taken 14 years earlier: SK3903 : The Battlefield Line, Market Bosworth. The permanent way looked in better condition then. All heritage lines suffered badly in the pandemic crisis with no revenue, volunteer labour stood down and paid staff likely to be furloughed.
Battlefield Line
The Battlefield Line Railway is a heritage railway in Leicestershire. It runs from Shackerstone to Shenton, via Market Bosworth, a total of 5 miles. Shenton is near Bosworth Field, (the location of the final battle of the Wars of the Roses), giving the railway its name.
