Chepstow railway station [5]
The lines leading to Newport.
The station was erected in 1850 with the buildings in an Italianate style. Constructed of squared, coursed stone with dressings and quoins in contrasting ashlar, all under a slate roof. The station is on the Gloucester to Newport Line. Until the nearby bridge over the River Wye was opened in 1853 passengers were conveyed by coach between Chepstow East at Tidenham and this station. The station is listed, grade II, with details at: https://cadwpublic-api.azurewebsites.net/reports/listedbuilding/FullReport?lang=&id=2586
Chepstow, the most easterly town in Wales, is located on the tidal River Wye, some 3 miles above its confluence with the River Severn. There is evidence of continuous human occupation from the Mesolithic period. The town grew in importance when the Normans erected a castle at what was the lowest bridging point of the River Wye. The town flourished as a port, being exempt from English taxation, and it mainly traded in timber and bark from the Wye Valley. The town became an important centre for tourism from the late eighteenth century.

Track bed and fenced-off storage area, Chepstow railway station
Maps from several years ago show several railway lines in this area on the east side of the South Wales to Gloucester and Birmingham double track, viewed from Chepstow station platform 1. All that remains now is the track bed, a dilapidated hut in the distance, and fencing enclosing railway sleepers.
