File:OS Buildwas 1882.jpg
Summary
Extract from the OSOrdnance Survey 25 inch map of Shropshire XLIII.13, surveyed 1882, published 1883, showing the layout of Buildwas station. The 'signal box' was probably a simple hut covering a ground frame, as the first 'proper' signal boxes at Buildwas were not built until 1887/88. A second ground frame (location shown but not labelled) was situated at the junction of the Severn Valley Branch and the double-track Coalbrookdale line, just before the bridge over the siding (bottom right) which led to a GWRGreat Western Railway pumping station on the River Severn. The area between that siding and the rest of the station's exchange sidings is shown as an active sand pit.
