http://www.disused-stations.org.uk/e/elvington/index.shtml This view may change sometime in the future as planning permission has been granted by Dover District Council under application number DOV/13/00654, for “A) full application for the re-contouring of the spoil and restoration of the former Colliery, proposed siting of a photovoltaic array (10 MW), restoration of the former railway halt including siting a visitor interpretation boards and rock store, landscaping and ecological works and footpath link and B) outline application for the siting of industrial units (Class B2) (10,000 sq m GEA) with all matters reserved, with the exception of layout, scale, associated car parking and means of access (amended and additional details)”. This is a similar scheme to that found near Betteshanger, which has now become Fowlmead Country Park Image
