Information About

Cat Hill Tunnel




The railway bridge was removed in the 1990s, the line having been built by George Stephenson in 1840. Steps that led to Darfield Station may be found beyond the Western abutment. The Station was originally at the Broomhill end of a tunnel but in 1880 was moved nearer to the road when the tunnel was 'scalped' into a Cutting .

The remains of Darfield Station can be found at its former Doncaster Road site. The original station was built 45 chains to the south at the Cathill Road site near to Broomhill in 1840.
