The Old Railway
The Ingleton Branch of the North Western Railway opened in 1860 and went from Clapham, through Ingleton, Kirkby Lonsdale, Barbon, Middleton-on-Lune, Sedbergh and Lowgill, before joining what is now the West Coast main line, just south of Tebay. Passenger services ceased on 30th January 1954, and the line finally closed in 1967. It roughly follows the route of the River Lune from Tebay to Kirkby Lonsdale.
The three major viaducts at Ingleton, Sedbergh and Lowgill are now Grade II listed buildings, hopefully we cover these in our walk guides as soon as we get a little bit more freedom to travel. Luckily for now we have a lot to discover on our doorstep!
