Description:This was the view from the footbridge south of Fenton Manor Station looking towards Fenton. The station was opened in 1889 as part of the North Staffordshire Railway branch lines to Leek and Biddulph. It was closed in May 1956. Access to the station was from Victoria Road. Just beyond the line are the furnaces of the brass and iron foundry and behind that the Stoke on Trent Workshops for the Blind buildings. The houses to the right are on Herbert Street, off what is now City Road.
