Newnham Station down platform and shelter
I snuck into the grounds of the station to take this ... I probably wasn't supposed to but no one noticed so that's ok. Photos from a couple of years ago show this building resplendent in fresh GWR style paint and the whole former trackbed area being used to display garden plants. What a sad contrast to how it looks today. The main station building - just visible to the right of the shot - is boarded up and looking decidedly sorry for itself. The station closed to passengers in August 1962 and to freight in January 1964, although the line had closed completely between Woofferton and Tenbury Wells in July 1961, before Dr Beeching could get his hands on it.

Newnham Bridge Railway Station
The railway station at Newnham Bridge, along with the refreshment room and shelter behind, are now being refurbished since mid 2020. I forgot to take a photograph of this before it was being refurbished (2018-early 2020), but this photo was taken from the A456 road.

Newnham Bridge railway station
The station was on the line from Woofferton, just south of Ludlow, to a junction with what is now the Severn Valley Railway just north of Bewdley. It was known as the Wyre Forest line and between Woofferton and Newnham Bridge the railway was built largely on the route of the never - completed Leominster Canal. Well, I say "never completed", but it did in fact open and operate for around 60 years: it just never made a profit or reached its intended destination. Newnham Bridge was originally known simply as "Newnham" and is in fact still shown as such on some maps, but when the railway opened the GWR decided to append the word "Bridge" to the name, probably in order to avoid confusion with the GWR railway station at Newnham in Gloucestershire. The station was, until fairly recently, a garden centre, and in fact until I drove past it the other day, I thought it still was as it appeared to be thriving in that role the last time I saw it. But it's obviously derelict, and becoming more unkempt by the day. I hope someone rescues it: the platforms and the down side waiting shelter are both intact as well as the main station building.

Newnham Bridge Watermill - stone floor
This shows three sets of stones with two that had been in use until the miller left. The crown wheel and auxiliary drive shaft are also seen. This was a good mill in excellent order but I believe it has not worked since - such a shame.
