Photo 6x4 Sneinton Hermitage: remains of railway bridge Nottingham\/SK564 c2010

Photograph Notes: The substantial blue-brick abutment on the left supported the four-track bridge which carried the London & North Western Railway goods branch from Trent Lane Junction to the Manvers Street goods yard, which was built into the side of the hill to the left. The LNWR gained access to Nottingham through the alliance with the Great Northern which led to the building of the GN&LNW Joint Line through the Vale of Belvoir to Melton Mowbray, Market Harborough and Northampton. The LNWR goods warehouse at Manvers Street was badly damaged by the Luftwaffe in Nottingham's biggest air raids in May 1941. The goods yard site is now occupied by houses of Newark Crescent and trees grow where wagons were shunted. Trams and later trolleybuses once ran along Sneinton Hermitage to the Colwick Road terminus.
