Bissoe Revisited

We went walking and geocaching along the final stretch of the Bissoe Trail on Sunday. It was a flat walk on a very hot day- for England!  
We came across another viaduct. This one carries the modern rail line. The pillars beside it were part of the original viaduct dating from the 1830's. The rail line was built on wooden struts on top of the stone pillars that still remain. We saw a sketch of it on an information plaque, and have to say it looked pretty  fragile.


Despite the heat Sean roamed everywhere- I'm sure he does a much greater distance than us, going back and forwards. He also had fun taking his own photos.

Until next time
Gillian
