This disused railway was converted to a railway path as part of the Turning the Tide project. http://www.turning-the-tide.org.uk/ The lettering NCN denotes that the path is part of the National Cycle Network route 1 (Inverness to Dover) http://www.sustrans.org.uk The A frame (partly hidden) is intended to deter motor cyclists, but as it adjoins a wide opening, it appears to be redundant. This photo is taken where the path crosses the lane from High Hesleden to Monk Hesleden.
