Benchmark on Station Road
An innocuous enough location for a humble cut mark - on a wall at Butt's Batch south of Wrington. See Image] for a closer.

A very small warning
Kings Road is a short enough stretch of road but the No Through Road sign is going to be difficult to spot to motorists.

Blanked off on Station Road
This wall has a fine surround for a doorway, but opening directly onto the road is probably why there is no door here.

Nothing of the station
This view in The Glebe shows little but modern houses. However, this site was the old Wrington railway station, which operated from 1901 to 1963. The line was primarily intended to supply communications for the construction of Blagdon reservoir, but also carried passengers for a few years. The station itself was not a particularly extensive one.

An old line
The Wrington Vale Light Railway was a single line operated from 1901 with the principal aim of providing materials for the construction of Blagdon reservoir. The line also carried passengers and farm produce until ceasing in 1931. The line remained in use until 1963, but the curve can still be seen in the track today.
