Before the comissioning of Kidderminster signal box, the connections to Platform 1 were controlled by a ground frame, which was unlocked by the [[Bewdley South signal box|Bewdley South]]-[[Kidderminster]] staff. The signal box was commissioned on 21/11/1987, which is probably when the ground frame was taken out of use. It is not known whether  The points at the far end of Platform 1 were controlled independently of the ground frame controlled any , with the frame itself controlling at least the points other than those leading to Platform 1 /1 Engine Line and the run-round linecatch points in 1EL. It is thought that the frame had at least six levers, and may also controlled the connections to BR and what are now the Carriage Works. There may also have been access to the Carriage Sidings.
