More Graffiti on Cycle Track

I am not sure of the purpose of these ornate looking items they are situated on either side of the former railway line and either side of the bridge making four in all. Pity about the graffiti, it is such a blight. This is the bridge by the Gasometer as Layerthorpe becomes Hawthorn Grove.

Graffiti on disused railway equipment - Cycle Track

The disused railway line from Foss Islands to the Scarborough line by Nestle used to run into the Nestle factory. After the line was no longer used it was converted to a cycle and pedestrian track. Unfortunately a lot of the route has been marred by graffiti which is a particular problem in this area of town.

Gas Storage Tank - Layerthorpe

We have been hearing rumours for the last five years that this gas tank is going to be dismantled so I thought I had better record it just in case it does eventually get dismantled and removed. The area where the old gas works that was used to convert coal into towns gas used to be next to it and has now been built on with a block of offices and a block of flats nearing completion. Behind the wall is the track of the old railway line which used to run to the Rowntree factory. The track has been removed and a tarmac cycle and pedestrian track created.
