The remains of a former occupation crossing on the L&NWR route between Northampton and Wellingborough is still partially extant near to Delapre Lake. The concrete post, now at rather a jaunty angle, once would have supported a gate with one of the double tracks still visible through the undergrowth. A short distance behind me across the field was an embankment and an overbridge that once carried the Midland line route to Bedford.
