Clyne Valley Cycle Track

I didn't travel very far so these pictures are from Gowerton to Dunvant.Cyclists and walkers on the track.
The foot bridge running over the track.
One of the many old railway bridges running over the track two of them still carry the weight from a busy main road.
A small tunnel running underneath the track near the gowerton end.


A couple of shots of the orange rivers running along the cycle track, when was a child I believed that this was caused by hundreds of tons of mining machinery being dumped down the abandoned mines slowly rusting away in the flooded mines.
Later I was told by a local researcher that all the unwanted ore and iron ferrite that was mined was dumped on top a small stream until the early 1900s somewhere near Killan hill. He believes that over the passed 100 years this waste ore has slowly fed into the rivers oxidizing and tainting several miles of streams and rivers with a rust-like silt.
