Burlish Halt was situated in the western part of Stourport, just off Bewdley Road, between [[Stourport]] and [[Bewdley]] stations and 3&frac14; miles north of [[Hartlebury]]. It opened on 31 March 1930 and had a single platform with a pagoda style shelter<ref>Vic Mitchell and Keith Smith, ''Country Railway Routes, Kidderminster to Shrewsbury'', 1958 photo.</ref> similar to that at [[Northwood Halt]]. It principally served the works of Steatite & Porcelain Products Ltd. which opened in 1929<ref>The Severn Valley Railway, John Marshall</ref>. At some time between 1958 and closure of the line, the halt was 'upgraded' and the pagoda replaced by the 'bus shelter' in the RCTS photograph below.
