Description: | View along Ashdell Road looking towards Kings Pond from just passed the railway bridge. The land to the right of the road belonged to Ashdell, a house built in 1872 for Frederick Crowley. At that time a footpath ran through the property in front of the house, this was diverted to round the back of the house and down a newly built flight of steps which are still there, just off the picture to the right. The rustic bridge was built to allow easy access to the Kings pond area for the family and was demolished in 1911. In the centre of the picture can be seen the wall of the lodge, now called Tudor Lodge. The cottages on the left no longer exist but were called Kingsmere Cottages. See also picture number HS2177 for a view of the bridge from the other side.
