Much Wenlock railway station

The original Much Wenlock railway station was opened 1 February 1862 by the Much Wenlock and Severn Junction Railway, linking Buildwas with Much Wenlock. The line later formed part of the Wellington to Craven Arms Railway and was, for much of its working life, operated by the Great Western Railway. The original, but temporary, dead-ended station was replaced by the through station illustrated - about ¼ mile (ca. 400 metres) further east - at some date between March and September 1866 [2] (but definitely before September 1867 [3] ).
