Smestow Valley Nature Reserve at Castlecroft, Wolverhampton
Looking north-east towards Compton and Tettenhall.
The Smestow Valley Local Nature Reserve starts here, and continues along the abandoned railway track for two and a half miles (four kilometres). Behind the camera, towards Wombourne, the South Staffordshire Railway Walk continues the facility.
The Great Western Railway opened a branch line from Wolverhampton to Stourbridge (Junction) via Wombourne in 1925. Seven years later it was closed to passengers. The line between Kingswinford and Tettenhall remained open to goods trains until 24 June 1965, though the branch which served Baggeridge Colliery survived until the closure of that facility on 2 March 1968.
