Footbridge on the Carrs Looking across a footbridge near the head of the Carrs, an extensive low-lying area in south-central County Durham. Not sure of the function of the small fenced enclosure. Two railways converge here to pass through the Ferryhill Gap. A Virgin Cross-Country train is seen on the embankment.
