Railway bridge over Haw Lane This bridge carries the Chiltern Main Line across Haw Lane, north of Saunderton Station.  It was built in the early 1900's to replace the old Wycombe Railway single line bridge.  The bridge has had replacement concrete decks fitted in recent years, but the old abutments of the Wycombe railway bridge are still present in the foreground.
