I paid another visit to the area, with my camera, during Summer 1999.  This is - or rather was - Torside crossing, looking towards Hadfield.  It's really hard to believe there was a railway there at all!

I discovered this when passing through the area on my way to a holiday in Scotland in 1998.  I couldn't stop to take a photo of it, but when I came up the following year I made a point of stopping off to get an image.  It's visible from the minor road on the way out of Dunford Bridge, but is some way off it on private land.  Note:  the photo was taken with the land owner's permission.
