Off to Grotton now. Here's a late 1800's map showing the mills and goods shed. Arrowed is the area where we're going to be looking at.

From a fair few years ago, a very clean trackbed on a frosty morning

Nature has started to take over the scene in this pic from Ben Brookbank. Both platforms are visible in this shot.

Heading towards Lydgate tunnel
|
|
Platform stonework
|
|
It is a very long platform. More evidence nearer the tunnel.

|
Lydgate tunnel comes into view in a dryer patch. The overhanging vegetation gives it a spooky look.
|
|
All types of ferns and plants grow in this secluded spot
