Geocache Description:

Long Lane Bridge AKA Katie’s Hide

The cache is hidden where long lane, now an overgrown bridleway with a cobbled surface, crosses the Penistone railway line just west of Shepley Railway Station. The cache is a small plastic container that can hold small items and TB's.


Penistone Line

The Penistone Line is operated by Northern Rail in the West Yorkshire Metro/ Travel South Yorkshire area of northern England. It connects Huddersfield and Sheffield via Penistone and Barnsley, serving many rural communities. The first section of line between Huddersfield and Penistone was opened on 1 July 1850 by the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway (L&YR).

As an extra challenge set by my daughter Katie, we would love to see uploaded photos of any trains that are about to or have gone under the bridge. To help with this task below is some information on the train service as well as a link to the Penistone time table. The time table can also be viewed at the near by Shepley railway station.

Service summary
