Malins Lee railway station (site), Shropshire
Opened in 1860 by the London & North Western Railway on its line from Wellington to Coalport East, this station closed to passengers in 1952 and completely in 1964.
View south towards Stirchley and Coalport along the site of the single track. Platform and station building were to the right of the track. It's hard to believe now but old photographs show spoil heaps from the area's coal mining would have been to the right of the image, behind the station. Today, the area has been completely redeveloped and is near Telford town centre.
