Saltersgate Lane, history uncertain
A near identical picture to that taken by Oliver Dixon NZ0742 : Parallel walls, Saltersgate Lane
It seems possible that this was formerly a track or tramway built for transporting minerals from the many quarries nearby. At the north westerly end of the track (180 degrees from this view) there is a building which could have been a planned railway station that never opened (Saltersgate Cottage)
For more detailed info see Link
The lane appears on circa 1856-1865 maps available via Link
