Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Derelict Tipping Dock, Harston Sidings, Denton Branch Hidden in a newish plantation north of the Denton to Harston road are remains of the Denton Branch, which served the ironstone quarries at Denton, Harston, Cedar Hill (collectively known as Woolsthorpe Quarries) and Harlaxton. Before the Second World War, little narrow gauge engines brought ore here from the quarries for transhipment to main line wagons on the Denton Branch. After the War the narrow gauge lines were converted to standard gauge and the location of the big fan of sidings known as Harston Sidings can still be made out (see other photographs nearby). This tipping dock was used by lorries in the 1950s and 60s. |
