A mystery railway relic in the Fens. Rails cross Lark Bank, the rough track that runs alongside the River Lark, a few miles to the east of Ely. Only this section was intact at the time (16 April 1988), presumably as it had been too difficult to remove. I'm unsure of the gauge, but my Vauxhall Cavalier is included for scale! The line went from the fields off to the left of the picture, to the river bank on the right. The course of the track though the grass can clearly be seen. These rails have since been removed. Although the 1925 Ordnance Survey 25 inch map shows tramways extending across the fields from nearby Laurence Farm and Lark Grange, nothing is shown crossing Lark Bank. The tramways were presumably potato railways, as were once common in Lincolnshire. This was the site of White Top Mill, so that may also have something to do with it. Any information would be gratefully received.
