Summary

Description
English: Bovey Tracey: Lower Knowle Road This is an intriguing feature on the Ordnance Survey 1:25,000 scale mapping. The acutely skewed bridge used to carry the now defunct Newton Abbott to Moretonhampstead branch line railway over Lower Knowle Road here, but the road runs parallel to the railway for some distance either side of the bridge, and the skew angle is such that the bridge is quite long, giving the effect on the map that the road stops either side of the railway embankment, with the ends some distance apart, and the stranger does not know whether these are two dead end lanes at either side!
