Site of Soudley Halt
The halt was opened in 1907, after the loss of some freight traffic on the GWR's Forest of Dean branch left some space in the schedule for it, and closed in 1958 after passenger traffic was lost to the far more convenient bus services. It was a fairly simple affair, consisting of a cinder platform and a corrugated iron shelter, and it was situated roughly where the black car is in the foreground. The area once occupied by the halt and the track is now the car park for the White Horse Inn. Immediately before Soudley, loco crews would have tackled the rigorous climb from sea level at Bullo, via two restrictive and lengthy tunnels, and the closed Soudley Halt was a popular place to stop and rebuild the fire, possibly due to the proximity of the White Horse! Taken to replicate a railway-era shot by Ben Ashworth.

A rivet-less rivet bench mark on Soudley Bridge, Forest of Dean
This indistinct rivet bench mark is on the low east parapet on the older of the two bridges over Soudley Brook, Upper Soudley. The older bridge has now been by-passed providing safer access to the village hall. See also Image

Phone Box, Top Road, Upper Soudley
In a prominent location on a neat bit of verge. Still quite red and with all its windows, and a phone inside. A rare specimen these days.

Top Road, Upper Soudley
Looking towards the White Horse Inn with a still functioning telephone box. There are plans to close the box, a controversial move because mobile reception is poor in this area.
