Just by the level crossing is Hartlebury Signal Box. This was built by the Worcester firm of McKenzie & Holland about 1875. They were well known for their signalling equipment and were later taken over by another company who eventually shut the Worcester works in 1921. The signal box is thought to be one of the oldest still operational on lines formerly operated by the Great Western Railway.
