View southwards, towards Wellington: ex-GWR Wellington - Market Drayton - Nantwich (- Crewe) line. All gone by 1983, the station and line had been closed from 9/9/63, but the railway was relatively important for through freight and was not closed until 1/5/67. The view is from the B5062 bridge and the Wrekin (1,335 ft.), a prominent hill in the region, is visible ahead.
