Photograph of the bridge that carried the single line railway track of the Dyke Railway, across the very narrow Hangleton Road of that period.
The bridge was built in 1887 and was about 35 yards to the west of Rowan Avenue. The road on both sides of the bridge was widened in the 1930s but this strip remained like this until 1942. Probably owing to heavy Army convoys using this route during the War, the bridge was then removed, the dip filled in and the roadway widened to its present state.
