Coming down the Holloway Rd at the Archway end yesterday morning the
traffic was moving very slowly so I was looking around and saw what
looked like old railway track in an alley way between two shops. There
also appeared to be a set of points. The alley way was cobbled. I had a
look this morning and it still looks like rails.
I can only think of old tram track but the alley way is under an arch
so I can't see that it is even tram track.
I can onlt assume that it is industrial and was perhaps for loading a
hand truck.
Did I really see this bit ot track or did my eyes decieve me.

I believe it is nothing more than old tram track. At the Highbury corner
end of the Holloway road, there should be an old tram shed (now a pub)
with plenty of old track still in place.

I thought of that but the archway is not very high, definitely a single
deck arch. I will have another look tomorrow.
