[[File:OS_Buildwas_1927.jpg|thumb|300px|right|1927 OS Map of Buildwas]]
The OS Map of 1927 shows that the Severn Valley Branch connected to a siding serving a sand pit opposite Buildwas Abbey, a short distance west of [[Buildwas|Buildwas Junction]]. The siding was not present on the 1902 OS map and was presumably installed after that date.
The area occupied by the siding has been restored to a green field site, although an active sand and gravel quarry is located on the opposite side of the Much Wenlock road, in the area between the former Severn Valley and Much Wenlock branches.<ref>[https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/Buildwas,+Telford+TF8+7BX/@52.6343027,-2.5269945,388m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m5!3m4!1s0x487078e6f4f8ee4f:0x3a4e7ccd5747066f!8m2!3d52.637896!4d-2.531244 Google Maps]</ref>.
