[This is a view that was taken by mistake, as it is nowhere near Donnington station, but is perhaps too late to withdraw!] It is NW of the site of Donnington station, which was on the secondary main ex-LNWR line from Stafford to Wellington, which was closed to passengers 7/9/64, to goods 4/10/65. The station site was near the present roundabout on the new A518 by-pass, part of which has been built over the course of the railway. Close by was the Donnington Central Ordnance Depot (COD), to which until 1979 there was rail access from Wellington; in 2010 this line was restored, to serve the new Telford Rail Freight Depot.
