Once a tramway
This is the former trackbed of the tramway between Moreton-in-Marsh and Stratford-upon-Avon. It was built as a horse-drawn tramway with a branch to Shipston-on-Stour. The part between Moreton and Shipston was converted into a standard railway in 1889. Passenger services ceased in 1929, goods traffic ceased in 1960. See http://www.warwickshirerailways.com/gwr/mortonshipston.htm for more details and original photographs. The part from Darlingscott to Stratford remained horse-drawn and fell into disuse by the end of the 19th century. Dismantled in 1916 to feed the war effort, there are many remains to be seen in this area.
