  Are these parallel lines evidence of peat cutting? If so, it's happened on quite a large scale here. Moorland where peat has been extracted would narrow it down a little bit.    Report as Inappropriate	Rebecca	Friday 1st of November 2013 03:30:29 PM
  Maybe it shows different vegetation where land drain pipes are dug in underneath. Sometimes these wide bands are evidence of medieval field systems- strip lynchets. On moorland it's more likely that it's drainage and improvement? Report as Inappropriate	Will Wallace	Saturday 24th of May 2014 01:09:24 PM
  This is an rope-incline railway - looks like a winding engine building here - maybe the Cromford and High Peak - which linked the Cromford Canal to Rowsley on the main line.    Report as Inappropriate	Pete65	Saturday 4th of May 2013 06:27:14 PM
  If it is a railway, it's not the CHPR. Their inclines were double track all the way down. There were other inclines, though, that used this short passing loop arrangement. Report as Inappropriate	Maitland	Monday 20th of January 2014 04:08:01 PM
  A passing place on a single-track railway line?    Report as Inappropriate	ewnmcg	Sunday 29th of July 2012 05:46:41 PM
  Unlikely, as the geometry and scale of the feature does not fit that of such features on a railway. It looks much more like a farm track where a new route has been selected around a wet patch.... indeed farm tracks, with tractor/wagon ruts, do have some the of the characteristics of railway lines if not the conventional geometry.

  Looks to me like a minor road or farm track crossing largely level counryside - I don't see the evidence for it being a railway but happy to be corrected.	Calchfaen	Saturday 31st of August 2013 04:13:11 PM
  Looks very like Elsdon Northumbria, but can't find an exact match	TomRobin	Tuesday 20th of November 2012 11:28:17 PM
