[[File: Eardington_Bank_Summit_20150614.jpg |thumb|300px|right| Eardington Bank Summit]]
Eardington Bank is situated between [[Hampton Loade]] and [[Bridgnorth]]. Beginning at [[Sterns]], the bank climbs for around 1½ miles, passing [[Hay Bridge]], [[Eardington | Eardington Station]] and [[Level crossing at Crossing Cottage | Crossing Cottage]] to reach the summit, which is marked by a board on the right of the line travelling towards Bridgnorth. According to the board, the summit is at 210 feet above sea level (ASL).
The [[Gradient profile]] shows the whole climb to be at 1 in 100 apart from a brief respite of 1 in 200 passing Eardington.
For much of 2015 the area near the top of the bank has been subject to a speed restriction pending re-sleepering of that section of line, which is scheduled for the winter of 2015-16.
