About

Tickle Cock Bridge is a bridge in yorkshire. Established 2008. (Pedestrian underpass in Castleford, West Yorkshire, England.) According to Wikipedia: "Tickle Cock Bridge is a pedestrian underpass in Castleford, England, under a railway line originally built by the York and North Midland Railway between York and Normanton. Built in 1890, the thoroughfare now connects the town's main residential area with the Carlton Lanes Shopping Centre, and is used by 50,000 pedestrians each week. The original Victorian structure, described by the shopping centre's manager as 'small, narrow, very low and gloomy' and 'frightening to walk through', was replaced in 2008 as part of an urban regeneration scheme."
