Title: Ashdell Railway Bridge [Go to resource]
Description: View across Alton from the slope above the Ashdell railway bridge near where the steps are now. To the left can be seen the edge of the walled garden of Culverton House, just above the trees is the spire of St Lawrence. The fields and trees in the mid-ground would become built over by the breweries. The line was opened as a new route to Winchester in 1865 by the Mid Hants Railway but was bought by the London and South Western Railway in 1884. Copy of a photograph.
