Old Deepdale Railway line and Miley Tunnel

Meet at the City End of the line. The old Maudland Bank Railway Station - Roeburn Hall of Lancashire University has been built on the site.
The tour will take you under City and across a piece of the Lancaster Canal which is located under the railway line.
You will then emerge into a woodland corridor and walk along the disused line - now cleared of rubbish. A team of over 160 volunteers have worked for 18 months clearing over 200 tonnes of fly tipped rubbish.
Tour will conclude at Skeffington Road.
