{| class="wikitable"|+Next stations pre-closure|-! Towards [[Hartlebury]] and [[Kidderminster]] !! Towards [[Shrewsbury]]|-| [[Cressage]] || [[Berrington]] |- |}The village of Cound is situated approximately halfway between [[Cressage]] and [[Berrington]], on the banks of the River Severn. Cound Halt was one of a number of halts opened in 1934 the 1930s in a bid to attract more local custom. It consisted of a simple wooden platform with a small wooden shelter.
The approach to the halt included a sign giving information for fishermen, and it is probable that more fishermen than local inhabitants made use of the halt.
