===Severn Valley Branch (SVB)===
The ELR for the SVB Severn Valley Branch began in the south at Hartlebury Junction and ended at the junction with the Shrewsbury and Hereford Line (SHL) near Sutton Bridge Junction. Shrewsbury lay 62 chains north of this junction; however Shrewsbury was used as the datum point for the SHL. Thus deemed to be the junction for principal terminus on the Wellington lineS&H, which came between the two is with mileages measured as 11 chains from Shrewsbury rather than a distance from Paddington. Similarly Woofferton is measured as 32 miles 11 chains from Shrewsburysouthwards towards Hereford (see map of SHL below).
