    Sonning Cutting

    I grew up and lived half a mile away from the Sonning Cutting in Woodley so these pictures are of interest to me personally...

    Sonning Cutting is on the original Great Western Railway built by Isambard Kingdom Brunel.[1] It is to the east of Readingstation and to the west of Twyfordstation near the village of Sonning in Berkshire, England. The railway's originally planned route had been around the north of Sonning Hill past the village. But because of local objections the railway bypassed the village in a cutting, over a mile long and up to sixty feet deep, through the hill, giving a more direct route between Twyford and Reading.[2]

    I've never seen a picture of the Crystal Palace other than from within the park grounds, this one from the end of Crystal Palace Parade around the turn of the century looks remarkable compared to it nowadays...
