View of the Midland Railway's Lea Road Approach Bridge
looking north towards Kingsbury in 1907. The two approaches to this bridge have
an aggregate length of little more than a quarter of a mile. That on the left,
alongside the river Tame, has seven Hood openings, each of a 20 foot span, and
that on the right, the Whitacre side, has three 20 foot Hood openings, together
with one culvert. In the foreground the first Tame bridge is seen, and in the
left of the picture is one of the new platelayers' cabins.
