Oswestry signal box
Oswestry had at one time two signal boxes, North and South. Only the former South box remains and this has had significant work carried out on it recently including a new stairwell. It is not connected to the line as the working apparatus was removed many years ago. Now part of the Cambrian Heritage Railway museum.
