Footbridge and footpath from Styvechale Manor to the Memorial Park.
The single-track line was installed pre 1844 The footbridge can be seen on the OS map of 1947. Subsequent maps show the bridge removed. No details of the footbridge have been found but may have looked similar to this image. The path to the Footbridge came from the rear of Styvechale Manor crossing the fields towards the railway line. Armorial Road did not exist prior to the 1930s. When houses began to be developed in Armorial Road the access to the Footbridge was restricted and consequently the Footbridge was to be removed.
