Hill House Farm overbridge, view west, 10 January 1996

Hill House Farm overbridge, view west (see all photos of the same view)

Hill House Farm bridge, in the foreground, now has its span in place, but no deck yet. To its right, the shallow, sloping embankment has been grassed over. Rather than making this embankment steep to minimise the space it occupies, it has been gently sloped back to blend it with the hillside beyond. When the motorway is finished the boundary fence will be moved closer to the road and most of this space will return to farmland.
