A New Era – Illustrated (1)

This is the first of the pages already published earlier in 2016 but in which the sketches by Charlie Chadwick were not included because I didn’t know how to do it.  This particular page is the first of 17 which had illustrations missing, and I shall be releasing them on Thursday mornings for the next 17 weeks.  But don’t get spoiled, we will be going back to two releases per week after the 17 weeks have passed !

Strangely enough, I attended a works reunion recently which involved travelling along the A5209 and crossing over this bridge, and the old stone fence is still there, exactly as it was way back in 1924.  The A5209 runs from Ormskirk to Junction 27 of the M6, and the bridge with these railings lies half a mile to the west of Junction 27, cutting in half a medium sized lake.
