Despite the warning signs and the height sensor activated warning lights on the approach to this low height bridge, it continues to catch unwary drivers of high-sided vans out. Over the years, I've literally lost count of the number of drivers who have been caught unawares. The most recent include a supermarket refrigerated home delivery van and a UPVC windows fitter's van, which provided great amusement to the local kids on their way home from the nearby junior school. The 7' 9" height warning sign has recently been replaced following the supermarket van decapitation when the previous sign was caught up and mangled in the impact. In some of the incidents the Luton body had been ripped off the chassis and remained on one side of the bridge and the chassis and cowl of the van have been on the other side.
The road above is part of the slip road to junction 35A of the east-bound A55 and the access road to Broughton Shopping Park, it was built in the mid-70's to carry the old A55 from Hawarden to the then new 7 mile stretch of the A55 Chester Southerly by-pass to the A41 at Boughton Heath Chester.
Apart from the numerous low-bridge accidents which have occurred at the spot, the original Broughton Hall Road which now passes under the bridge was lowered and electric pumps were installed to cope with the drainage problem which often fail during periods of particularly heavy rain and the road which dips from both side becomes flooded and impassable. So I think it's fair to conclude that it is an example of poor planning and design.
Seen here just leaving Chemical Rd,Morriston on the last leg of its' journey to Morriston Hospital.Bar the upvc windows and that roundabout I don't think this spot will have changed to any degree within the last 60-70 years.
Hereford signal box on the Down side of the line at the south end of Hereford railway station. 14:45. Wednesday 5th October 1988
Ayleston Hill signal box was a London and North Western & Great Western Joint Railways type 2 design fitted with a 62 lever Saxby & Farmer Rocker frame that opened in July 1884. A replacement 69 lever Great Western Railway Company vertical tappet 5-bar frame was installed in June 1938. The signal box was renamed Hereford on 9th June 1973, the lever frame being reduced to 60 levers around the same time. A Kearns-Barker one control switch signalling panel was commissioned on 11th November 1984 to control Shelwick Junction allowing the signal box there to be closed. The signal box was fitted with uPVC windows in the mid-2000s
The signal box carried a British Railways Western Region pressed aluminium nameplate

Sunday 10th April 1988
Sleaford West signal box is a Great Northern Railway Company type 1 design that opened circa 1882 fitted with a 45 lever S&F 1874 Patent Rocker and Gridiron frame replacing an earlier signal box. Circa 1917, in connection with the opening of the railway line to Royal Naval Air Station Cranwell, the signal box was extended at the east end including using parts from the former Sturton signal box on the Lincoln to Gainsborough line and the lever frame was extended to 57 levers, again possibly including using parts from the former Sturton signal box. The lever frame has since been reduced to 46 levers and the original rocker locking replaced by tappet locking, and the signal box was refurbished with uPVC windows in the early 2000s
25 signal was moved 75 yards closer to the signal box on 30th September 1984 in connection with the remodelling of Sleaford West Junction

The signal box was renamed Rochdale No5 circa 1896 and further renamed Rochdale Goods Yard by autumn 1912. A replacement 60 lever Railway Executive Committee frame was installed by the London Midland & Scottish Railway Company in 1943. The signal box was further renamed Rochdale on 15th May 1977 after it became the last remaining signal box in Rochdale with the closure of the Rochdale East Junction signal box. The lever frame was reduced to 30 levers in 1981 in connection with the singling of the line between Rochdale and Shaw signal boxes. The signal box was refurbished and rewindowed with uPVC windows in December 2008 and closed on at 00:40 on 28th August 2011 with signalling controlled from Rochdale West signal box being commissioned at 23:30 the following day, and the signal box was demolished the following month
By early 1986 when I arrived at the signal box the windows at both ends of had been replaced by non standard windows and the row of single pane windows below the 2x2 pane operating floor windows had been replaced by boarding. The signal box was provided with a partition to create a separate domestic area to the operating area at the door end of the signal box with all the windows being replaced by non standard windows.The signal box carries a very weathered British Rail corporate identity printed design nameplate
The gap between the signal box was formerly occupied by the Down Goods line which ran between Rochdale West and Rochdale East Junction signal boxes was closed in between late 1970 and late 1972

Technically this building still exisits but it is barely recognisable since the major conversion a few years ago. Apart from the first floor brick dressings (some lost behind extensions) it is all rendered and painted cream, with a grey slate roof and UPVC windows. However, it is discreet but not dull, in keeping with the area, and well maintained.
In 2019 the colour scheme was changed: the brickwork sadly whitewashed but the walls painted a pleasant pale blue (the colour of blue-lace agate).

Rather nicely refurbished, Caverswall box looks good despite upvc windows!
Caverswall opened in 1942 to control new up and down goods loops provided as part of the war effort. The box is a LMS 11c with wartime 14" thick brickwork for the base. It retains its distinctive 'cocks comb' ridge tiles.
The goods loops remain, although they see very little use these days. Over the years the box has amassed further equipment, Blythe Bridge CCTV (08/03/1980), Stallington CCTV (12/03/1989), Cresswell AHB (18/03/1989), Upper Leigh and Leigh AHB's and provision of Up Main IBH at Lower Nobut (11/07/1999).

Highly durable, #uPVC is incredibly low-maintenance and many households benefit from its easy to preserve, wipe-clean surface.
A rather beautiful home. Unusual for a domestic house, however: I usually associate this sort of castellated gothic with institutional buildings - asylums, court-houses etc.
Previously run as a hotel and B&B, the cost of upgrading to current fire standards etc. was too much for the owner. Nevertheless, he is determined to keep the building in good repair, and replace the inappropriate infestation of uPVC windows installed by his father...

At some time the signal box was renamed Smithy Bridge East and it was further renamed Smithy Bridge in 1934 when Smithy Bridge West signal box was closed and replaced by a ground frame released from this box. The lever frame along with the level crossing gates were replaced by a British Railways London Midland Region individual function switch console and a level crossing control pedestal controlling lifting barriers on 14th April 1981, and the signal box was reduced to a non block post on 28th August 2011 controlling the adjacent level crossing only when signalling passed to the newly opened Rochdale West signal box
The signal box carries a London Midland and Scottish Railway post-1935 design nameboard.
The windows in the end of the signal box are modern replacements and missing from below the replacements is a row of single pane windows which have been replaced by boarding. The 2x2 pane operating floor windows were replaced by uPVC windows in the mid 2000s
