== Summary ==
Extract from the OS 25 inch map of Shropshire XLIII.13, revised 1901, published 1902, showing the layout of Buildwas station. The two 1888 signal boxes (one at the station, the other at the junction of the single-track Severn Valley Branch and the double-track Coalbrookdale line) are labelled "S.B.". At the bottom right, a siding ran under the main lines to reach a GWR pumping station on the River Severn. The area between that siding and the rest of the station's exchange sidings, which in the 1880's was shown as active sand pits, has become 'Old sand pits'. A new sand pit has opened south of that siding, with its own siding accessed by a reversal from the pumping station siding.
