Hopton Heath Station
What is now marketed as the 'Heart of Wales' line, but was traditionally known as the Central Wales line, has many diminutive halts of which a handful, including this one, are actually in England. Hopton Heath (the Ordnance Survey gives the name for the settlement as one word, but the station has two) is surrounded by the deeply rural Clun valley and, unsurprisingly, passenger usage is low. Even so, when the station was built in 1861 it had two platforms and substantial buildings (now in private ownership). See Image for the same view in 2007.

Hopton Heath station
Until recently, Hopton Heath was the least - used national rail network station in Shropshire, although now that dubious honour falls to Broome station which is just up the line. The Heart of Wales Line, which this is, was originally built as double track but has now been singled: careful scrutiny of the left hand side of the shot should reveal the stonework of the former Shrewsbury platform peeping through the undergrowth. The station building is now two private houses. A small hut next to the bridge at the end of the platform provides shelter for the many passengers who throng to the station every day.

The rudimentary shelter for the hordes of passengers who use this station, until recently the least - used station in Shropshire. On the left can be seen the disused Shrewsbury platform, dating from when the line was double track.
